Very interesting! I've never seen one done that way before. If it holds up, that could be a solution for mounting a Winegard 76cm on a HH-90 motor

The setup actually still allows the dish elevation adjustments to work.
I might possibly add a 6th plate on the 2nd side for more stability, I'm going to pick one up next time I'm near the hardware store.
It's been a couple of days, and the dish is still tracking the arc fine. We haven't had a winter storm yet, but I'm pretty sure it will hold out fine.
It was a fun challenge. I sat and stared at the original mount for probably a couple of hours before I came up with this idea. I didn't want to waste that perfectly good dish

Nice pictures, and as Tron said, "Very Interesting". I might give that a try, so I can place 2 dishes on 1 pole. Thanks for the idea!
