I was tired when I posted (always a bad idea). The seller told me 8ft, I finally measured and it was 6ish' or 1.8m. I didn't mean to say ceramic, I only meant fiberglass.

I finally decided to measure, yes it was a 1.8m (which tells me the seller couldn't measure and the mesh they have will prob be a 1.8m if lucky a 2.0m since they "guesstimated" 8' again). I'm curious, if I obtain a mount like this And I drill my own holes then repair the porcelain with...

I already have several KU LNBs (USA recommended and Universal), plus a Geosat Pro 90CM dish. I just figured if I need to spend apx $200 for a new USALS Motor or $200 for a C-Band Dish, that it'd be wiser to start moving towards my end goal of having a motorized C-Band Dish.

Seeing as for the time being this dish is my only option. phlatwound can you tell me how to work the elevation bolt? I noticed it has 4 nuts, one set per section. Do I need to loosen all 4 for the movement or just the top set (fun part of this whole dish is all the bolts are rusted or frozen in...

Does that mean that if I change out the arm/mount I'd still be stuck? I did notice it has holes for other LNB arms (my friend got the same model with a different LNB arm more similar to the Geosat Pro 90CM). As for KU/C, my area recommends a 4-6 ft for most C Band according to Satbeams - World...

I just got a used fiberglass 8ft Offset dish. I had a 90CM Geosat KU dish with USALS Motor, which worked well till our most recent windstorm where it damaged the motor. I picked up this new to me dish and would like to motorize it. The LNB Mount is at a friends so that will be re-attached before...

Thank you all for your help! I finally got 11760H, strangely it reported as 29996 instead of 30000.

comfortably_numb I have gotten a few feeds but not many. Last blind Scan I got 200 TV chans and 100 Radio Chans for the whole apx 20 Sat list. k1cza I assume you meant 12078 for PSB World. I took your advice and tuned to it as best I could. I only messed w/Elevation because I know my Azimuth is...

Kinda of curious maybe y'all can help me. I have a GeosatPro 90CM dish on a SG6100 Motor and currently live in Washington State (near Olympia). I can hit the 12145 transponder so I know I at least hit the bird, but I can't seem to hit 11880 or 11760. Any suggestions on how to fine tune it or do...

When was the "satellite was deleted without first removing the associated channels, it would cause a reboot loop" fixed? Because I have the Feb 2013 release and had to JTAG the box.

Sorry it took so long, yesterday was a cold, wet day here, too dangerous to work on the roof. rv1pop these are the answers to your questions. 1) the down hill slope of the roof is what direction? Perpendicular to the road or at an angle...I am guessing about 8 degrees looking south of west...

Sadly I tried both directions of the pipe and the elevation was as low as 40 Degrees. If I turn the pipe, look at the 4th pic titled "Showing Dish From Side.jpg" the last bolt for the arm it has a bolt that stops it from hitting exactly 30 Degrees, it stops it around 33 Degrees.

Well I have good news and bad news. Good news is I heard what I was told and was trying it the correct way. Bad news however is my dad decided to mount it, which is fine, except for the placement. As you'll see in the pics posted, this is the lowest I can go on elevation, 40 Degrees, and it's...

Thanks for the info, in regards to the elevation of the dish in the pic, that's just where it ended up at the end of testing and hadn't moved it back, but I am glad that I now know it's an offset dish I was wondering that since 30 Degrees appeared to be looking at the ground. And the 22 - 26...
