very nice hope that c-band dish is weighted down as imagine if that broke free from its mount would do some very bad damage

Some nice shots there. 
Don't think I'd fancy doing the installations on the 30 storey blocks.

It's always windy on a 30 storey block, particularly that close to the coast.

looks great,are you flying with the airplane,over the city?
strong winds are not good for the dishes,here in the mauntains i had never have any problems,but not free view,on all satelite positions,so what is better now,nothing of both i think!
i think about,in my phantasie,about, a dish wind protection system,with special material,that not blooks the satelite signals,and a sensor,detects the windspeed,and automaticly,a protection shield,comes ,around the dishes,but i dont know,what material is best use for,that not blocks the satelite signals?

The first two were taken from the top Empire State Building. The dishes in photo 1 must be fairly high up. From ground level I didn't see many dishes apart from the one in photo 3.

Nice Pics mate...
good to see I'm not the only anorak that goes on holiday and finds oneself looking at other hardware... ohhh that's a.. and that must be a ...and blimey how did they do that....?
Mrs Loop. hates me....
The C Band dish with the jack arm.... reminds me times gone by, and is standing quite high... hope it is well anchored..
so if you tell us the local of the dish can we have a good guess at what sat it is looking at from it's angle..?
the little KU dish? may give us a clue...
