    Modified Multiswitch for Ortho setup help!!

    youd only get one polarity at a time without some form of switching. the ops setup is pretty basic and it seems as tho the op has all the proper gear. as stated above the multiswitch mod would only be required if not using the power inserter. the mod is simple enuff and pictures can be found...

    the 12 footers polar mount is already set up with bearing and grease nips. its in 9.5 / 10 condition. the black 10 footer was a rusty beast. ive never seen a dish like it. it only split in half and is made of small 1/2 inch square tubing. it could be a home built but who knows. the feed support...

    Another newbie question

    how far you travelling with it? id recommend removing the reflector from the polar mount for transport. the reflector weighs a fraction of the mount and actuator. carrying a dish with that weight hanging off the bottom isnt a good thing. otherwise it shouldnt take more than an hour to load it on...

    Orthomode Voltage Injection

    i used to run vertical at 13v. since i got a signal i thought good enuff. i was recabling a bit and finally gave vertical 18v. before the voltage increase i had all kinds of problems with the s2 cw's at 72. now they lock easy and stay locked. just 2 more cents to ponder. crackt out,.

    Pointing to 91W and 74W

    a challenge indeed. if you have a circular lnb it would probly help. id start by offsetting it east about one and a half lnb widths and then find 91. swap to a linear lnb and blind scan. i usually find something on 91 at some point in the late afternoon. peak on any found tps. then id mount an...
