AU9S Mount

[dlloyd]

I have an old Directv system that was installed 12 years ago. It was one of the RCA systems with a single LNB. I getting ready to purchase a H20 and AU9 slimline and wanted to know if the AU9s will mount on the same diameter pole as the original.

The dish is mounted on the outside of the second floor of the house, due to trees. I wanted to see if the mount would have to be replaced before proceeding.

Thanks.

No, the poles are a different size. www.solidsignal.com has an adaptor that can be used to convert the older style, but I don't know how well it works.

I think the weight of the Dish would be too much for your old mount. I wouldn't chance it and would go with the proper mount.

i agree with scott. the slimline is bigger and heavier than your old dish.

Doesn't the AU9 require extra support or did that change with the slimline?

Monopoles are still required for professional installs.
