Just wondering how does this dish compare to an ordinary 1m dish motor from a typical sat supplier?

its top of the line gear, much better than a triax 1m dish and diseqc motor. the dishes are commercial grade so very good quality.

what motor is it as there is too types that can be used on this dish jaeger 1224 h2h motor or polar mount + actuator motor, 36 volt.

if your thinking of getting one remember they wont fit to a diseqc motor as they are too heavy and will break them.

I have had a look at one advertised and was wondering if it would be ok to sit on top of my 12' scaffolding pole stuck at the bottom of the garden. It said it had a 'jack' motor. I don't have any problems with my current dish but no harm in looking out for something better.

you would have to make the polar mount fit a 2inch pole which wouldn't take much effort by adding some bolts or something

but if you can get for a good price then go for it as I'm sure you will see some improvement, i did compared to a triax setup i had
