    Motor install elevation question

    Thanks again. I set it at about 22.6 and started rotating the Dish. I got close to something and ended up on a satellite. All I had to do was tweek it with the declination adjust on the top of the motor mechanism. The rest should be just a matter of working the curve. Thanks again.

    Sat Dish ID help

    Found the source of the Dish Seems that in Hawaii and Alaska Directv uses these 1.2 meter dishes vice the smaller 30" due to the location. I was able to order a twin LNB kit that fits this Dish from an online seller. Thanks for the assist.

    Thanks again. I am in Hawaii and I plan on pointing this one at 110. This will be my second 1.2 M dish. I have a motor and plan on playing with that soon a well. I am in the communications field but I don't get to play with sat stuff as I would like. It is more of a hobby than anything else...

    Not sure if there is an elevation scale or not. Don't think I saw one. I do have an inclinometer so i should be able to get it in. The skew may already be set for me. Thanks anyway.

    Sat Dish ID help

    Thanks. I will try that if no one can ID the make. There is no writing or numbers on the dish or mount. It is about the same shape and size as my 1.2 Channel Master but has a different mount. I do have a universal multi LNB bracket I may be able to rig if all else fails.

    Sat Dish ID help

    I have a satellite dish that is a 1.2 M dish that looks a little like a Channel Master but I don't think it is a Channel Master. I am missing the LNB bracket and want to know if anybody may be able to Identify this make and model dish. See pictures. Thanks,
