Finally had some spare time and got back to restoring this mount. It was very difficult to get it apart, but thankfully got it done with no damage. Was very happy to see that all the gears are still in great condition. A couple of bearings have a little drag to them, but might just need...

Is that a Titanium LNBF with a Chaparral scaler ring?

I know this wasn't your question but If you have the room and the budget, install a separate Ku dish. My old 36 inch Starchoice dish with a GEOSAT pro performs better than my 10 foot mesh with a Cal-Amp C-Ku feed horn. You will also find it difficult to get your 10 foot to land on the Ku...

Nice dish, and it looks like there isn't any torn mesh or hail damage. I don't think I have ever seen a grey Parabolics East dish before. I immediately thought it was a Winegard quadstar. As an added bonus you got a nice VW actuator with the 8 magnet wheel.

I have installed many of these StarTraks and am using one right now. They are a very well made dish with good C-band performance. I did some tests with a California Amplifier C/Ku feedhorn and was very surprised and disappointed with my results. I found that an old 36 inch Starchoice dish...

I am a small business owner, so unfortunately my hobbies like satellite often get sidetracked. I am still having problems getting the housing to separate. I don't want to force anything, as the housing is cast and obviously getting parts is out of the question. The other issue is my workshop...

I would buy it, but they freeze up here. lol

I could be mistaken, but that sure looks like a 1.8 Prodelin which would be around 6 feet.

Watching the inauguration today, I am fascinated with the technology used in the motorcade. Apparently they brought in military signal jammers for the inauguration. I would love a ride in that truck that is covered with antennas.

Canadian Tire has it.

This fight was about as real as Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior. Tyson's legs and gas tank were clearly done by the second round and Paul backed off. There was no way that Paul was going to brutally KO a 58 year old boxing legend. It was a light sparring session for the rest of the fight.

Just checked with the 2.4m offset Prodelin here in central Canada, and the LPB channels are definitely still on the air, with no dropouts. The levels are slightly lower than the Florida channel. Hope that helps.

If it isn't too late, run a 1 inch (or bigger) conduit from your attic to your electrical panel. Technology changes fast.
