here are a few picture of my gin pole here. got this in 93, and it was the heavy duty alum model that was made at the time, it will lift or lower a 12-solid fiber glass dish with ease. the winch will brake either up or down too, nice for when you need hands free. the last picture is the...

I use several orthos here, 3 dual C & Ku, and 3-dual single band ortho. now the problem by converting 1 of these switches to output 18-V on all 4-ports is their wimpy wall wart that they have for their power supply, pluss you are limited to the voltage output of it's regulator. now a lot depends...

normally this has more to do with a lnb an it's stability to lock TP's with in a 1 or 2-mhz separation between TP's. most of you're standard lnb's and lnb-f's can be off by 2 to 3-mhz as by today's standards are, then trying to lock a week TP with in 2-mhz of a stronger TP most receivers will...

Thanks for the reply gabshere, I just thought that you might of known the magic number, my G-box handles it fine, and so did a DSR922 when I was setting it up with that high of a count. and Yes B.J. you are right on with all that you mention. now their are several areas that a person needs to...

Please tell me what is too much, I would like to know. all of my home brew reed set ups, I do try and strive for a high count, and I thought the same thing, but never have reached that point as of yet. now when I set up my ChannelView last year, and was test running it I thought it was going to...

From ground up to top of the pipe little over 17-ft. what you can not see is that their are 2 other pipes ( 2-full sticks of 21/2" an 3"pipe) inside of the main pipe along with re-bar and concrete and this pipe goes threw the roof, had to use a crane to set it. did this back in 1994 when I...

Yes a Birdview mount will handle a 10-ft mess with no problem. but I think it would be a big waste of time an money to do it on a mess dish, a 10-ft solid would be a smarter choice by far an yes the mount will handle a 10-ft solid just fine with a low (note last picture below) motor amp draw. I...

morning Bill. yes the 2 big bolts are how you will set the play with the worm gear and 1/2 moon gear. the bolts are 1/2" fine tread and are taped into the motor bracket, most of the time they have some kind of epoxy over the head of the bolt to stop them from becoming louse, so that will need...

"This is the other hand" I have made from scratch polar mounts, and fitted on to reflectors that where designed for AZ/EL, as well as fitting horizon mounts onto other dishes than for what they where not design for. and have done this a lot in the past 25 years dealing with satellite dishes of...

not really, they do performed good, just not that sturdy of a dish, they have a lot of flex in the dish too. now it is just the way that the reflector bolts to back ring, a very poor design. not like any of the other mess dish company's that had squared U bracket that bolted threw a both ribs...

that is a Gram, they where noted for the dish reflector getting blown of of it's back frame, the 4-bolts that is held by will pull right threw the ribs where they are bolted.

that is not a reed switch, that is a mirco-switch. what you have their is their PAN, is the 1st transition over from a 1 to 10K pot to a pulse that a receiver could log the actuator position of the sats. an it works on the same princeapal as a reed switch, it is just mechanical instead of a...

Go to the Panerax web site an down load their latest soft-ware for the 9200, in it it you will find a channel editor for the 9200. open it an install on you're compt, then you can added more motor position numbers than just 27 to 49 using the editor. I use it on a Pan-9000, an it works great...

1st off very nice dish. an it should perform great once you get it peaked in. an you're settings of the receiver an lnb voltage, need to be set the way Long Hair said an is right on. you need to come up with a multi-switch, for you're ortho set up that you have their. I read threw this post...

you will find this with a lot of receivers their John, some receivers are good to fair for their sensitively, wile others are great an performs an far better on weak signals. 3 receivers that come to mind here that I have used are the Vantage-1100, Pansat-9000, an Diamond-9000 will lock an run a...

may be this will help. Galaxy 3C at 95.0°W - LyngSat

the 1 piece dishes that the hole 8, 10 or 12-foot dish was pulled from a mold, some of these are the 1s that can get out of shape, some not all. not on the 1s with all the ribbing on the back side an that are bolted together, like the picture posted. I have several dish up a running, 2 of my...

well sorry about missing out on the mess dish that you wanted, but the glass dish would of been my pick. that is a Prodelin an looks to be a 12-footer, would not worry about it being a button hook that can always be changed. those Prodelin dish are great performers for signal, an it will beat...

have to agree with Stogie, when adjusting the elevation it is tough for 1 person, but it can be done, far better with 2-people. but what I would be more concern about is their is NO declination adjustment with these Birdview mounts, this is very important to have them track the ark perfect. an...

That is correct, Birdview never had any kind of limit switch to stop them from over running off the worm gear. but if you look at the 1/2 moon gear you will see how they cut about 10 degrees off it, so it will stop when it come's in contact with the back of the dish. now it is real easy to add...

I also have a few of them here too, still in their bag. comes with drift pin, alum angle bracket, magnet wheel, sensor, an directions.

That is a 8-foot SMC by Channel Master, an bet it has all stainless hardware too, if I was you I would grab it, they are very great performers for signal. my 10-footer here will out perform any of my other 10-footers on C-band by a little bit, but on Ku it will beat the mess dishes by a great...

1st off nice relay circuit, an simple. an as far as the extra voltage, I would bench test it with a hand on the motor to see just hot hot that it may get with 50 volts verse 36, it may be ok. the amp draw of a actuator or a horizon motor mount is some thing that should be checked from time to...

I have used that feed horn in the past, an have not been that happy with it's performance on the Ku side, wile I have found that the co-rotor will out perform it. an yes I know you're point about the chaparral scalar ring with it 1 alan set screw. a better scalar to use is a channel master off...

on Intelsat-805 @ 55.5 only get c-band here have no ku, but have not scan in a wile IS-805 3592-V-10127--this is hot 94Q w/AZ in case you're lnb wont go low band here is another in 3.7 to 4.2 range freq. 3859-H-4444--also hot 95Q w/AZ now you know that Intelsat-705 is circular right?? IS-705...
