Feel free to share your plans :) Getting more than one LNB on CM dishes is tricky...
In this hobby it seems as one plan is being executed, another is being hatched!:D

I am just going to chop it all back and route the arms out of the way with a plate to take the C band lnbs, I will set 3 lasers pens up to pip point the actual location of the original lnb before I start cutting, that way I can get the ku lnb back exactly where it should be.

Aren't the LNB support arms getting in the way for the off-centre LNBs? Especially true with C band LNBs which are huge.

I was thinking the same, still a really nice bit of work especially the cabling.

Yeah, I did actually get in touch with Skyware about this a while back but they don't stock/make this any more.

It's a pity that they don't make the accessories for the Channel Master (Skyware Global) dishes anymore, especially the polar mount. I'm certain that there would still be a good demand for these and maybe a hot dip galvanised option as well. :(
