Part 2 - The Powermax SG-9120 motor (and added bonuses!)

With the dish done, it was time to open the smaller box. They say good things come in smaller boxes (pic #1)... What do you see? Yeah! Robby included a WS-KU2C C-Band offset scalar kit and a DMX241 C-Band LNBF! I guess we'll see if there's any C-Band to be had on a 90CM! With these bonus parts, I'm going to call this new dish MicroBUD ... But first, lets start with the new Powermax SG-9120 motor.

The Powermax SG-9120 features metal gears instead of plastic, and a 55mm outer diameter dish mounting tube. It comes in a box about the same size as other motors on the market (pic #2). Inside the box, the motor is well protected and wrapped in plastic (pic #3). Pic #4 shows the contents of the box, including the motor, bracket, mounting hardware, and instruction booklet. The motor has LED status indicators and a reset button similar to the older (and better) version of the SG-2100 (pic #5). The square U-Bolts which attach the bracket to the mounting pole are made of quality metal (pic #6). I doubt that stripping will be a problem like it was on the original SG-2100 U-Bolts. The U-Bolts fit into the bracket nicely after an initial squeeze (pic #7). The bracket has two latitude setting ranges--0 through 40 and 35 through 75 (pic #8). Pic #9 shows the completed motor assembly.
