Default Triax Dish Wall Fixing

Hi Guys

Another newbie preparing to dip my toes. So please forgive my ignorance and apologies if I'm repeating stuff thats been asked hundreds of times before.

It all started with my comment to the good wife "I think I'll by a new TV thats HD ready" then thought how do I get HD and ended up on this site.

So I'm thinking to start a Triax 90cm dish with 4 way LNB mount and 4 way switch. This seems a better idea to me than motorised dish, my thinking is I might run extra cables in future to separate out the signals to different receivers.
What I'm really loking for is wall mounting ideas i.e which brackets fixings etc and where's the best place to get them.

TIA

A wall bracket such as this is ideal.

Another option would be a couple of T&K brackets, and a short length of steel pole. It would be much stronger than the elbow bracket.

For a 90cm dish go for T&K brackets and a suitable length of pole - those flimsy elbow brackets tend to snap at the base weld in storms and shouldnt be used for anything bigger than a 60 cm dish.....
