I can't believe I am selling this, but my plans have recently changed and It's now time to send this classic dish on to a new home. My Kaultronics (SS-120) 9.5 foot stainless steel dish (Avatar picture). The dish is 100% functional. Fits a standard 3.5" pole mount. selling for $100. I am...

Thanks to all for the help on this. I never did find a service manual but I did find enough info to realize I did not have a calibration issue after all. :)

jkara - check your PM.

Alignment mostly, but having a manual would be worthwhile for other aspects too.

I am searching for a SERVICE manual for an Avcom PSA 37-d. Does anyone have a pdf or know where I might find one? Google search is not providing much help. Thanks

Yes - most definitely it's ALL about the money. However -- When they dropped AMC a few years ago I dropped them and didn't think twice about it.. The customer is ALWAYS right - how quickly they forget!!

Are there any dealers around the East coast that sell the GEO Sat Pro 1.2 meter dish. Wanting to buy one but the shipping cost is quite high to have it shipped from California. Any ideas??

C1WPLL™ - Single output PLL wideband (3.4 - 4.2GHZ) --- Stability ---

Post some pictures of the steel dish if you can. I have a 10 foot Kaul-Tronics steel dish (see avatar) - it has a sticker (which is faded) but you can still read manufactured Sept 1984. That puts it right at 30 years old..

One helpful hint that I found was to move the dish to the ground (temporary) while getting used to the alignment process - especially with a motor. Then once you feel comfortable with that, move it back up to the roof... It worked for me :)

I have one very similar to yours - this is what I did for mounting an LNB. This dish is currently not in use, but is stored in my barn.. hence the dirt :(.. When I had it up and running the results were very impressive.

Just my opinion - your best choice will be to replace the actuator with one that will generate the pulses needed.

It is difficult to tell from the pictures, but is that an analog counter circuit in the actuator - (a potentiometer that is used for the position) . If so, it is not going to work with a Vbox which requires pulses.

Any bracket can help this to become stable. - Once the dish is assembled with the other pieces you will never notice the broken weld. It would only be an issue while it is disassembled like it is the the photo.

Use dishpointer.com as a starting point to find the general location and parameters for setting this dish. http://www.dishpointer.com/ Then as previously pointed out - adjust the dish VERY SLOWLY while watching the meter. I also recommend (for the first time) taking a TV set out to the dish and...

Even a 30 foot tower is worth it.. You can always add a few sections.

Wonderful - Thanks.

A question for the MicroHD users out there. Does the MicroHD offer recording in the TS or PS mode? Can you select between the two modes? My Manhattan RS-1933 allows for selecting either format, and I was curious if the MicroHD did also. Thanks GI_Joe

Ingenuity at its finest - but I prefer my First Strike Meter!!

Speaking of slates - Does anyone have a screen capture of the following: The History channel from a few years back when they had a problem and showed the "man on the beach" for a month. Also ANY screen capture of the oil spewing from the well during the BP disaster? I had them both and I lost...

We have a simple Christmas dinner at my Mother-in-Laws house each year. then first thing Christmas day go over and see what Santa brought the Grand kids.. Then just relax and enjoy time with family. Thanks for the contest.. GI_Joe - (Enjoy the hobby) :) .

Finally figured out how to attached the pictures..

It has been a LONG time (over 6 months) since my last post on this. I got bogged down with work and I have had limited time. _ i finally got moving on this. I really could not find a decent replacement for the button hook, so I made my own. See pictures. I took a 1 1/4 " diameter pipe and had...

This also peaked my interest. I have spent countless hours fine tuning a C/ Ku dish just trying to peak the signal on Ku. It wasn't until I started playing with the "centering" of the LNBF around the C band scalar ring that things started to make sense.. You can reach a middle ground where...

RT-Cat - Sure, just so I will have the data in case I want to go that way.
