This one was posted on the sats.co.uk forum but its so good Ive GOT to share it

Heres the lads description:

Here it is a 110 cm dish with a multiple lnb setup from 5E to 28E degrees ....well it took me several months to accomplish this final setup because i was wondering which was the best setup....well not till now i'm convinced of it....cause maybe it could be better....but times will tell...and you if you know....

Only the 5E and 16E lns are clamped in place:
The rest are held in place with tape

Well, it's unusual.... 8)

Hotbird looks a bit wonky, but hey - if it works, it's a cheap setup.

Looks like it might not last too long though

Perhaps he was trying to track Hottie 1 across the arc

hi guys,i guess if works then fine lol.i dont think id let him @ my wave t90 dish mind lol.i take it the cover is to keep the water off the cabels.sure is different & looks hard work to do with only tape holding most lnbs.i hate to think what would happen with the wind we have had here the last few days.

Imagine all that tape after a good shower of rain gets to it...
