So I'm reading the manual for the SG2100...

And the manual tells you to look up the elevation / declination settings depending on your latitude. No problem so far...

It then tells you to set the elevation angle of the motor - no doubt from that table you just looked at. - No problem...

It then tells you to find you declination angle on the table and it's a small number - like 8°. It then says "Set the declination angle by the scale on the antenna dish. The reading on the dish scale should be 40° declination angle".

Why did They have me look up the declination angle if I'm just going to set it to 40°?

Maybe this will make more sense when I have this stuff in hand - lol.

How are you planning to attach your primestar dish to the SG2100? I used the original mount turned upside down. I used 2 pieces of PVC pipe to go between the motor shaft and the primestar mount and adapt it to fit. I used a piece of 1.5" schedule 40 PVC pipe and a piece of 2.0" schedule 40 PVC pipe. It is necessary to cut a slit down the length of both pieces of pipe. The slit in the 1.5" pipe allows it to expand to fit tightly to the SG2100 shaft as the inside of the 1.5" pipe is slightly too smal to fit over it without the slit cut into it. The slit in the 2.0" pipe allows it to compress enough to fit into the Primestar mount. When you cut the slit in the 2" pipe you must make it wide enough to allow for the pipe to compress enough to fit. If I recall correctly I cut mine about 3/8" to 1/2" wide.

One other thing I had to do was trim some material off the mount with a dremel. If you look at the primestar mount where bolts tighten up and clamp the mount to the pole, you'll notice there is kind of a ridge or lip on one side that will butt up against the other side when the bolts are tightened to a certain point. This was probably done to limit the amount the mount could clamp down on the pole such that overtightening the bolts wouldn't result in compressing in the sides of the pole and distorting it's cross section into an oval. In order to make it work in this configuration and be able to compress the PVC pipe around the SG2100 shaft this ridge must be removed or partially removed to allow the bolts to be tightened farther and generate more clamping force. So that's what I did. The result is a pretty nice mount that's not to difficult to construct and allows for easy adjustment of declination by simply turning the adjustment bolt on the bottom (which was on top in the original configuration). Anyway, if you have the original mount, a couple of pieces of PVC pipe and a dremel handy, this might be something you want to look at trying.

I might give either of those a shot.

I had originally saw your instructions Ziploc but then I thought it might be cool to have skew adjustment... so I pretty much bolted the P* dish to a Dish500. It is yet to be seen if this ghetto attachment will work out but if I cna make the original P* mount work it'd most definately be stronger.

I've got a good week before I even get my reciever so I'll take the P* mount apart and look it over. I thought the whole problem with the P* mount was the sheer weight of it. The original elevation adjustment is kind of cool and I wouldn't mind retaining it.

I have/can do elevation adjustment of the dish in relation to the arm by adjusting a couple of nuts on the lower threaded rods which were really way too long in that photo so I cut them way shorter. downside is that there is just no angle indicator, the lower mount is setup so I can adjust the dish. It actually worked very well to help me fine tune the declination angle as I could run out a few turns on the nuts check how it tracked the arc using a signal meter, and go back/forth until thee signal was strongest along all points of the arc. once I tuned it on a pole in my driveway it was simple to recreate the proper mounting on a short eve mounted pole at the roofline. after fine tuning it a couple more nuts keep it locked in place, once in a while a good wind messes me up by a degree or two but it's simple to get back on track, it's usually the whole pole that has turned in my eve mount.

The regular mount is 9lbs and the homebuilt is about 2lbs. The Dish's skew adjustment is handled by the arm of the motor itself. Once you have the motor mounted and have the dish attached and peak it on a few satellites so it tracks the arc properly the dish automatically skews what looks to be 75-80 degrees at either end of the arc it travels.

Originally I built a test rig(a length of the pole/pipe using a threaded floor mount to a simple wooden X) that I could level/set on my driveway and tweak adjustments until I understood how it all went/worked together. This was a very fun garage project for me.

Ziplocs mount looks very nice. That might not be a bad mount to go with. As for skew adjustment, my understanding is it isn't necessary on a motorised dish as the motor itself tilts the dish as it tracks the arc automatically adjusting for skew. Generally you set the skew to 0 on a motorised dish and this automatic tilting of the dish takes care of at. After all the optimum skew changes as you move the dish east or west from your true south satellite. This is why the motor takes care of it automatically as it moves the dish. So, if your going to use a motor you shouldn't need skew adjustment and if really must have skew adjustment on a motorised dish, the only practical way to really achieve it would be to use a polar servo like most of your large prime focus dishes use. It may be hard to find a polar servo that attaches to a c120 flange (which is the way the Primestar feedhorns attach to the LNB). Anyway, I think if your going to motorise the dish it's best to forget about skew adjustment an set it to 0.

As for the weight of my mount, it's true it's fairly heavy. However, I have seen people using the same method to attach the round 1.0 meter and 1.2 meter primestar/channel master dishes to the SG2100 and those dishes are bigger and heavier and also the mount used with those dishes is larger and heavier. If they don't have problems then I wouldn't think I would. Of course I could be wrong. One thing that might could be done is perhaps drill or cut some holes in the mount in certain places to remove some material and perhaps some weight. Anyway, I'll attach a few pics of my mount so you can see it. One of them shows a close up of the lip or ridge I had to trim down with a dremel. Note I'm not a photographer and only own a cheap camera so you'll have to excuse the quality of the pics. Also despite the way it may look in some of them my pole isn't leaning. That was just the angle I took the pics at.

America’s Fastest-Growing EV State Isn’t California—Not by a Long Shot

New data shows electric vehicle adoption is increasingly driven by state policies, electricity prices and charging access—not federal incentives
www.autoweek.com www.autoweek.com

The number-one US state for EV growth, according to the June 22 Yardi report?
Oklahoma.


:eek


It has no ZEV mandates and "minimal" incentives, Yardi says, but also has cheap electricity, high multi-car household rates (so, for example, a non-Lightning Ford F-150 pulls their trailers), and a consumer base willing to switch.

Never realized that Tesla is losing to BYD at manufacturing too, which IMO is Tesla's biggest accomplishment and area of innovation. Nice writeup about the state of play and how we got here though. I have no faith that we're moving any productive direction though sadly, most changes and efforts feel reactionary rather than rooted in making use of the time being bought by tariffs, with few exceptions.

So: how are the cars so cheap, and what is being cut to get there? The best public accounting comes from the Rhodium Group, which compared BYD, Geely, and Leapmotor against Tesla's Chinese operation, a fair comparison because it removes labor costs and shipping from the equation entirely. Their estimate is that BYD builds a car for about $4,700 less than Tesla builds a Model 3 in Shanghai, roughly 15 percent of the Model 3's price. The breakdown is the interesting part. Direct government grants account for about $292 per vehicle, which is 5 percent of the gap. The biggest single factor is vertical integration: BYD makes about 80 percent of its top-tier components in-house, against 37 percent for Tesla, and that eliminates roughly $2,369 per vehicle in supplier markups. Lower overhead, meaning cheaper engineering talent and administrative cost spread across enormous volume, accounts for another $1,719. And BYD pays its suppliers on 155-day terms, against Tesla's 60, which is worth about $214 per car in float. When people say the Chinese advantage is subsidies, the per-vehicle number says otherwise. When people say it is slave wages, the Tesla Shanghai comparison says otherwise too. The advantage is mostly that BYD decided, twenty years ago, to make its own batteries, its own motors, its own power electronics, and its own semiconductors, and Western automakers decided the opposite.​

The EV company to watch out for is SAIC. They seem likely to take over Government Motors at some point.

GM originally struck a JV deal with SAIC to gain access to China. Now SAIC has taken China back with the substantial library of technology GM shared and they're looking to export to Mexico, South America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

US EV sales are rising again. Here’s why the recovery is set to last.

Even though sales tanked last year after the end of federal incentives, the American EV sector is on the mend as drivers face sky-high gasoline prices.

Has anyone noticed an FF stutter with 713? I used to be able to hit FF a few times and skip smoothly. After 713 (maybe 712), when I skip forward, there is a definite stutter for as many times as I have pressed FF.

Can anyone check on this and report back? Recorded programs and then press skip forward a few times to see if it's smooth? Normally, it just jumps to the right place after the skips.

Addressed by what you didn't quote. This cycle is as old as computing: compilers, libraries, frameworks each automated the tedious part, and the human work moved up a level. Innovation didn't end; it shifted. And people still make new compilers, libraries or frameworks.

Nobody's forced to hand anything off. Anyone who wants to keep doing it by hand still can, and people who couldn't do it at all now can.

Been reading this thread but not commenting much, primarily because there is so much "news" out there on this topic and it is hard to tell what is real and what is theater.
My biggest problem with AI is that these agents are taught...not necessarily programmed but taught. Well, there's an old saying "garbage in/garbage out". I remember a Joe Rogan show a while back when he had Elon Musk on and they talked about AI and Elon said one of the AIs (can't remember which one, sorry) was asked which was worse, Thermonuclear War or mis-gendering Kaitlyn Jenner and it came back with the answer that mis-gendering was worse. Now forget the politics involved with all the gender stuff we have been subjected to the past few years.....to say that mis-gendering is worse than the killing of hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of human beings.....Kaitlyn Jenner included.....is simply insane not to mention incredibly dangerous.

Agents need appropriate context to make what would be understood as the correct read in a situation like that, and that Gemini answer was a clear miss on that front.

That said, we've also seen Musk (and/or his team) put his thumb on the scale (or just release a very poor product) with his own deployed AI since:

In the end, it's all a tool. Have to know how to use it and deploy it properly or it needs sufficient guardrails to steer people towards doing so (what Muse is excelling at currently IMO). I'm routinely interacting with several agents a day operating various processes locally and in services I use, and there are numerous others silently spun up to perform actions or satisfy requests from my prompts.

Related to earlier discussion in the thread on leveraging local inference: this kind of analysis happening behind the scenes is something everyone will have built into Windows, IMO. Most people won't see all of this, just the results, unless they want to dig into how the fix was chosen. Stuff like this will be standard as agents get local system access baked in, and more of the inference itself moves on-device.

I tried to do that, when I did delivery driver work (2010- 2013), we had a fleet of Freightliners. The newer trucks had headunits that were satellite compatible (XM only I think), but lacked the antenna and guts. I got a car kt for my old Roady XT and tried to use it, but at the volume levels I needed have it at to hear it over the diesel engine it sounded like crap, so I used my phone with an aux cable. When I was in the middle of nowhere with no cell service it didn't do me any good though.

At my current job, one of our new cars has the free trial of SXM active, I frequently have to go off site to a location 75 miles away in a rural area and it's nice being able to use the service off of the satellites versus using the app. There are many places on this journey where all three providers lack service.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
