    Extension Pole?

    I have a Fortec 90cm motorized dish mounted on a flat roof using a non penetrating roof mount (NPR4A). I need a little more height to clear the top of a building. I get some transponders on this sat, but not all and I figure its the building. Does Sadoun sell a pipe sleeve that will fit over...

    damaged dish question

    I installed an 8 foot dish years ago and had a problem with the ku band. C band reception was fine. It took me days to figure out what was wrong. The reflector (mesh) was slightly out of round. I replaced it and everything was fine.

    damaged dish question

    The box was in great condition, not a mark or tear on it. I think it was done in the packing stage. I did notice at his website, it says no returns on dishes and if damaged contact the delivery company. I'll have to think twice when wanting a new piece of equipment.

    damaged dish question

    motor recommendation

    I use a Coolsat 5000 right now. The only option I have is a 30' rooftop. I have a non-penetrating roof mount. I'll probably use the Coolsat to line stuff up.

    motor recommendation

    I'm about to pull the trigger at Sadoun's for a motorized system and I need some ideas on which motor to buy. I notice he doesn't sell Moutek's (sic) anymore. I'll be using a 90cm dish with an Invacom lnb. I'm in the northeast and was concerned with weather. Thanks
