I spent 13 months at Ft Gordon, then went to Landstuhl West Germany in 1983 (60 foot FSC-78 & 38 foot GSC-39). I spent my last year with a 10 foot TSC-93 in Honduras. Where were you in Germany?
I bought my 36 inch ball screw actuator directly from Venture in 2014. I have NEVER had any issue with it. I was told by the Venture Rep to get the ball screw. He said it had less friction than the Acme and would last longer. 8 years so far and running great.
Just my $0.02

Unfortunately all that C-Band dish stuff I had access to has been hauled off and dumped or recycled :( I don't use covers myself.)
I'm sorry that I could not help you Eugene.
