[QUOTE="a33, post: 1085280, member: 332642"] How did you measure the 15,5 cm? It looks like 'height above the ground'? So did you take this into account? : The measurement should be done as Trust did, relative to the actual beam. Also you did 'lift' the dish mount, to be able to get the proper inverted offset angle, if I understand you right? In that case the dish bolts are also automatically a little bit higher than with normal construction, so one or two cm should be subtracted from the 15,5. [I]Just saw the new post by Trust. Nice testing! I thought of the possibility of the 180 degree rotated motor shaft, but didn't think about the new hight effect! BTW The triax clamp can be mounted in two ways: 10-34* or 23-48*. Does that affect your measurement somehow? What I did think about, is the 'length' of the AzEl-clamp: if the distance from motor shaft to back of the dish is bigger, in inverted mode the dish wil be higher, as you wrote! You were faster.... :) [/I] Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
