After months of hassle with trees that needed chopping, poles that had to be higher and recievers that had to be replaced here it is.

thanks to everyone that gave me help and are still giving me help.

Excellent, wont be long before you will be wanting a bigger dish!

Excellent job

Did you climb up and put in on yourself?

Physcogem · 14-08-08, 10:15 PM

i have been up to the top to check connections but the sat man and his big meter did all the fine tuning.

looks good, why the need for it to be so high up trees ? as i have trees around here and my dish is a foot below the guttering

i would have been tempted to install a 36volt polar mount and dish as you might have some issues in windy weather

it is because of the trees signal strenght on hotbird went from 70 to 99 and quality 60 to 95 when moved higher. if ever we lose packages on 13e then i will lower it.

what is a 36volt polar mount and dish ?
