    polar mount allows you to move the dish across the arc with a GBox or an analog receiver

    stationary YOU are the one to move the dish across the arc....literally. You adjust the elevation, azimuth and skew for each satellite

    I have 2 stationary ones...one is fixed on 99W and the other I move across the arc by hand
    Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet
    Two 6 foot Fortec dish with GeoSatPro dual C-Band LNB "ghetto moved" to various C-Band satellites

    IMO, Get the polar mount.
    You will probably want to move your dish someday without leaving your comfortable chair.

    polar, Polar, POLAR !

    He sells motors 'n the Gbox v3000, so you can always add those later.
    If you get the fixed dish now, you remove your options.

    Oh, I assume this is for C-band only. Think:
    C2



    Ask around and make sure a six footer will get your birds.
    That way, there won't be any disappointments later.

    Sounds like a plan! -

    A 6 foot dish is a little small for the C band but you may be able to get by with it.

    At present, Univision Is on C band, and Telemundo plus some Azteca channels are on the KU band. You need to be able to get both bands on your dish. These channels are not on the same satellites so it would be a good idea to have your dish move automatically without somebody having to go outside and turn it.

    Some C band channels should be available for the kids in Spanish. English programs are available for the kids on the KU band PBS channels.
