[QUOTE="RimaNTSS, post: 998377, member: 312276"] For quiet some time I am using standard pipe clamps as LNB holder. I find them very good to do the job, namely, to hold LNB firmly in the needed position. They also allow to adjust position of the LNB very precisely. I do not thin I will ever go back to whatever plastic, metal.... wooden :D and so on holders. Couple of days ago I've found place where is possible to purchase much lighter clamps. They are made of 1,25mm thick metal (older ones, I've used made of 3mm metal), but because of the special profile they are very strong. And there will always be enough strengths to hold LNB. Those, new clamps, come with rubber inserts and welded M8 nut on the middle of one half of the clamp. Rubber inserts I trow away and angle-grinding the nut (however it also can stay). Size of this new clamp is 31-35mm, but because of removed rubber inserts, is fine to hold 40mm LNB. Those clamps are pricey (INOX made), but perfect in their performance. [/QUOTE]
