Hi all,
I'm currently putting a list of components together for installing a motorised dish. The dish I intend to purchase is a Gibertini OP 85 SE or XP and TM2600 M2 motor, I'd like to go to 1m but don't think that will be possible due to the dish location.
T K brackets to mount to wall I know that on a 18" bracket the pole will be 16" from wall and a 24" bracket the pole will be 20" from wall.
Can someone tell me how much extra clearance the TM2600 motor adds? Don't want to fit a 24" bracket if I don't have too. I know under normal use the dish will not be anywhere near the wall but it would be handy to have it at right angle to wall for maintenance.
Any advice on mounting the T K brackets would be welcome the dish will have to go on the front of the house, have 90cm of brick work from the bedroom window to the corner of the house which is the only place it can go. What are the distances between the 3 wall bolt holes on the K bracket, I'm assuming the width of the bracket stays the same only the length of arm changes. I live in a modern house with those stupid bricks that have 3 holes through them so I want to be able drill into the solid part of the brick. What fixings would you recommend? I think the only options I’ve got is nylon plugs and Coach bolts if so what length? Or resin and threaded bar.
