95W on an 18'' dish

Duct Tape! Is there anything it can't do??!!? Great use there Mr. Iceberg!

The duct tape was because part of the holder bracket broke...

when I had my FTA setup if it didnt have duct tape, zip ties, hose clamps or a piece of wood it wasnt a "iceberg job"...heck some had 2 of them
1st pic was hoseclamp and wood...LNB's at 107.3 & 111.1 (I had Shaw Direct/StarChoice for a while. This was on a 1.2m dish)
2nd pic is same but 3 LNB's....119, 123, 129 (both 119 & 129 at one time had some freebie channels)
3rd is hoseclamp, zip ties and wood for 123 & 119 (back when 123 had Equity channels)

Added another small dish. Initially I put it onto 91 W, as in the pictures. Right now I think that I have it on 123 W. It's picking up Daystar and a ch1 playing music with 70% Q for Daystar and 58% for the ch1, was trying for 125 W. Picture four is my supervisors, whenever I'm messing with the dishes they always gotta supervise.



a while ago I removed the SG2100 from my 76cm dish that was having a hard time moving it, think I'm going to put it onto this small dish this weekend. Moving across the arc, I'm really surprised what I can get on these small dishes.

Hmmm... I have an old Sony DirecTV dish (remember those?) in the attic. I wonder...

Vertical dish farming. I like it

Well, I tried putting the SG2100 motor onto one of the small dishes this past weekend but it wont fit without some cutting/maybe welding on the mount, bummer. i have 3 spare mounts, so I might try again this weekend if I'm not too busy.
