I dont think it is a Fibo Greg :?

The mount you have your dish on is a chunk of a mount! 8)

Its not really a channelmaster mount. It is a prime focus mount designed for a 3 metre dish. You will notice the long bolts I have fitted to turn the prime focus into an offset. It took a while to get that right.

I bought the dish secondhand and the mount came with it. The stand rust is my addition.

She already sees the 1.2 out of the two rear bedroom windows. Anything bigger would block out the light and expedite my ending.
