I'm off to sunny Spain for a change of scenery, but where I'm staying there is no room for this bad boy dish. Its the whole setup thats on offer; dish, mount, actuator and lnb. The whole lot cost me over £1500, so someone will be getting a bargain.
Check out item 250777460898 for pics.
If anyone is interested, sadly this dish is up for sale now as im now immigrating. If you do a search on ebay for Prodelin, it should show up.
cheers all.
Yep, I tried that from another site and funnily enough it updates the maps but not the listings. TTALEX did respond back though and said that the SatcoDX program used fields that were incompatible with the Satbeams database, hence there was no support. I'm going to look at picking out the...
Are there any sites which provide a list of channels in a format compatible with the SatcoDX program (WorldOf Satellites) or SetEdit Nav for the echostar 3600? Satco DX is no more, whilst Lynsat no longer provides the DAT files. If you go to SatBeams (formerly SatCo) the only offer them in XML...
I've just realised that I must be colour blind ! The problem was that at the dish end I was using a white & yellow cable for the sensor but at the receiver end I had connected up a white & green lead instead. And you're right about the specs for the positioner, it's rated at 5 Amps. I looked...
what is there to modify? I didn't know that I had to. It works OK with the Echostar actuator but with the heavy duty Superjack it's struggling to to drive it. The thing is that I don't see the echostar actuator lasting for long trying to drive this dish.

I've just replaced a 1.5 lightweight aluminum dish with a 1.8 Prodelin fibreglass dish and now I've just realised out that my receiver (echostar AD3600 IP) does not have the oomph to drive the heavy duty actuator that's attached. The shop that I bought it from has confirmed that the actuator...
The easiest way to determine if the reed is knackered is to put a meter across the wires. It's normally open in use but closes when the magnet passes over it. Point to note is that the ferrite disc inside is not completely magnetic but has four magnetic points. And it's this opening and closing...
I knew I wasn't going bonkers ! I tried fitting both the Inverto and Invacom but they have to be 90 degress out to fit the four screws. But if I just use two screws it's on and facing the right way, so now I've got all my channels coming in clear. Funnily enough, the recommended LNB that they...
hi all,
I've just got myself back up and running after a long time off-air, and while trawling through the box of bits that came with this setup, I've discovered the following. A CAS 2 card writer, something called a j-card connector, a Matrix Reloaded & Magic CAM. Are these still relevant...
The polar mount sits on top of a 4inch pole and can swivel around it. The one recommended by prodelin this dish sits in a groundstand with four large support legs, but you need a garden the size of a baseball court for it, hence the reason why they also suggest putting the post in concrete. My...
What an insightful lot you are here ! The pole that it's sitting on was designed for a lightweight aluminium 1.5 IRTE Prime focus, but when I went for this monster, I assumed that it would easily sit in it's place even though the post diameter was the same. How wrong I was! Comparing it to the...
