Which 36v positioner, there seem to be only 2 on the market, a primesat one, and a jaeger one.
Whilst we're on this subject, im also stuck on which length of actuator to get 12, 18 or 24 - CM1.2 dish...
There is unlimited clearance behind the dish.

Thanks all!

For the vbox I don't think it matters much, the Jaeger one looks a bit nicer though.

18" is all you will need for a 1.2CM

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Jaeger has been in the satellite business for some thirty years, they wouldn't be if there was an issue with them.

Some European wholesalers have Saginaw (Thomson) actuators, they are sometimes branded 'Maxi'.
