[QUOTE="archive10, post: 912935"] Well, I have a 180 Rx sitting in the garden for just over 3 years, and it has survived multiple storms and takes in 28.2E just fine. It was orignallly optimised for Astra 2D reception (10773 being the key transponder to receive). Never had to readjust - the mount seems to be well-dimensioned and well-engineered to maintain alignment properly. Perhaps I can eek out another 0.2 dBuV of strength by careful alignment to 2F - but TBH it's not necessary. So no point in trying. So to choose would require knowing what the intended use is. If you are Rx only, then a type 180´will do just fine. If you are at a mountain top (exposed) location, or need to accomodate transmitter electronics on the feed arms, then a 183. Otherwise it's not necessary. [/QUOTE]
