I'd seriously try to get both Pinnacles. The one for the H-H mount, but ditch the buttonhook and use the 4 arm support from the other, Plus you have spare parts that are hard to come by.

5000 series are PLL. If you really want 8115 they can be had on ebay.

You're never going to get the same performance form a C/Ku feed that you'll get from a C band only feed. At this point with all the 16 and 32APSK and the performance demands they impose I'd never again consider a C/Ku feed unless the dish was larger than 12 feet.

I gave it a try tonight. 70W I see nothing on C band. 65W I see some transponders but they are all weak.

I have something similar I ratholed after finding it on ebay at least a decade ago. This one fits inside the feed, so I could never use it with the corotor but I may be able to with the c band orthogonal feed I have now. Box says Precision Satellite Service 1-800-HOT-DISH. LOL

The Chaparral international feed does both linear and circular C band, as well as linear Ku. Been using one for years to get those atlantic circular birds, I didn't want something that required me to remove/install a slab.

Still booming at 88 quality here in TX. Not a very good channel really, like right now it is just showing Aljazeera English.

You can buy the correct C band arms and feedclamp for this dish through Dow electronics, and they aren't very expensive.

I have one of those in the closet. Echostar, Manhattan, and Topfield have also made receivers that will control booth an actuator and polarizer.

I use one of these, Rick's satellite sells them. To do the universal Ku on it, the only LNB I find is an Astrotel, and no one seems to know anything about it, I started a thread recently, and got no comments.

I'm showing good signal quality on that TP here.

Hmmm. Guess nobody here ever tried this.

Looks like Patriot sells one of these too, and it voltage switches between bands. http://www.sepatriot.com/PDF/PAT-LNBWBKU.pdf

Anybody know anything about these? Supposedly Astrotel makes one that has dual LO frequencies like a universal LNBF does. I'm wondering if it switches off 22khz tone or voltage.

I'm not sure how it would fit in a car, would have to be a pretty big car I think, the reflector is broken down into 4 sections, so each of those is nearly 4 feet on the 2 flat sides. Sending you a PM with my address.

No, it doesn't. Pansat never would cough up the needed info to add their newer receivers.

I don't, and it is all apart now. Let me know if you want to come by, I'm off work until the 29th.

It totally depends on the diameter of the polar mount. My 10' Unimesh with a 24" would just barely do 37.5 - 139W with a couple of clicks left over on each side. I tried to do the same thing you are wanting to do, first I got a 36" Thomson-Saginaw.These suck, as they are really large so it...

My experience has been that Pansats will in fact handle position numbers starting at 1 and going up. It's true you can't enter them from the remote. However, you can place them in there when you edit a channel list with channel master and it does end up using them, the position number I put in...

I rescued this from a neighbor's house almost 2 years ago when a friend told me he wanted one. After all this time he has never taken it away and I'm sick of it taking up my garage space. It has the usual hail dings in the mesh and rusty hardware but otherwise all appears to be in good shape...

Just removed mine so I could take the 90 degree elbow off the c band side. Way better, I'll never go back.

My cable run is a bit under 200'. With Quad shield RG-6, switching was completely unreliable. I switched to RG-11 and it has never missed a beat. I was lucky enough to steal a 1000' spool on ebay for about $60 including shipping, so I have 4 runs of it coming in. :D BTW, bury a 1.5" conduit...

There are some oddballs that will control the positioner and servo, but they can be difficult to get your hands on. The Satcuiser I have does both DVB and analog. Unfortunately it won't do AC-3 audio. I previously used a Manhattan plaza, which didn't have analog and also would not do AC-3...

Actually, there have been several FTA boxes that do analog also, mostly sold in Europe and Australia. One of them is in my sig.

Google is your friend, schedule 10 is significantly thinner, hence weaker. Comparison of Schedule 40, Schedule 80 Pipe and Schedule 10 Pipe
