    Installing Pole on Platform

    i know a regular tripod wont work. the installer probably isn't allowed to use the 2 inch diameter "heavy duty" tripods or they dont have them. I see they sell 2inch to 1.6inch adapters for the slimline to fit a regular tripod as well. As for securing, ill just use the cinder blocks i have to...

    Installing Pole on Platform

    I currently have a slimline dish. I recently got it installed on one of those non-penetrating platforms held down by cinder blocks. The installer put it out in my patio area in my condo (i live in the second floor) in the only location where i can get a line of sight. Problem is the platform...
