Cheers lads - cant even find 28E yet so 30.5E will have to wait a bit! :D

The elevation adjustment is certainly a bit wayward on these Triaxes.....

We did warn you!

Tip: If you hold the bottom edge of the dish with one hand, and use that alone to alter the elevation, you'll find it slides much more easily than if you also have hold of it elsewhere. The trick then is to hold it steady while you're tightening the slider with your other hand.

Even better if you can pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time.

Didn't I mention something about tearing your hair out?

Just imagine fannying around with it while balancing on top of the ladder reaching up above your head - I didn't have to imagine.

Then the spits of rain into the eyes - the horror, the horror!


Tip: swear a lot, you'll feel better.
