I believe raydio has successfully used that dish with an HH-90. Perhaps he can chime in on his procedure

Thanks, Raine. I would love to see a pic. of that.

Thanks, raydio. I don't know what you call the clamps, but do they come in different sizes? I actually have a pipe in my yard that I would like to attach to, but it is slightly too large for the clamps. Well on second thought, a bolt going through the larger clamp would not match up to the second clamp holding the smaller pipe for the dish. Dog gone it. It is a good strong pipe. Have no idea why the previous owners had it in the yard but it is buried deep, about 4 ft. tall and is incredibly strong. I kinda think it was there for Christmas decorations, but can’t imagine what kind of Christmas ornament or decoration would need something so strong. I have been playing with the idea of spot welding angle iron to larger pipe to hold smaller pipe, but this would deffenitly be UGLY. Good thing I live in the country.
