[QUOTE="s*t*a*r*m*a*n, post: 6090, member: 175004"] believe it or not i have bought volume 1 and 2 of the videos you mention. I found volume 1 useful from my own experience i should add. I didnt know how to fit an f connector (very easy indeed) but this video showed me but volume 2 for me was a complete waste of money. Its full of interviews with people but very little hands on tech stuff. some of it was interesting but not practically useful to me at this time.

The motorised alignment section was useful however, though brief. basically using the east and west satellites to align the arc more precisely. It showed an uplink to a satellite etc but again if you are looking for basic tech stuff then i have to say vol 1 was better.
