would your other half mind a 1.2m andrews as theres been some on ebay recently that will get you 26e and 7west i'm sure lol

No, she would have a fing fit.

I just put the Triax 110cm up, without telling her, and then she noticed it
I'm going to have to hold off buying any more dishes for a while until the trees grow back a little ( to hide it), and then it would have to be a channel master/Andrews 1m.

MBC is a right brd to receive

yes unless you have a larger dish and more precise alignment unlike my rubbish triax dish, stay away from them

Tricraps dishes are a waste of time apart from their smc dishes,

yes the stupid thing elevation bracket is not fluid movement and is slightly bent i've found, completely messed up my dish

do they make a 1metre smc dish ?

did a scan of 26e tonight and mbc scanned in but only just some signal there so dish needs a tweak so they come in better

update time got my angle meter from fleabay, and had to use it on the top of the rotor arm on the moteck motor, was some way out according to the meter, so adjusted, and am now getting 7w and 26e but with pxels, this is due to the slack in the motor and size of dish! may have a further tweek tomoz.


for info, i zero'ed it on the bracket arm, not in the house on a table, as this would obviously not give true readings when moved to a different surface, but it can be used on a moteck

What, do you mean the angle meter. I zeroed mine at work on a level surface.

You know when it is correct if you put it on a not quite level surface, it will measure an equal and opposite angle, when you turn it end to end.

this thing Robbo

thing is, if you zero on a true flat surface, you would then need to adjust your bracket to suit, as i use a L bracket and not T&K, I KNEW MY BRACKET WASNT FAR off by sperit level, and i didnt want to adjust that further, so by zero-ing on the bracket, my dish now suits the bracket its on for elivation, hope ive explained myself better now
