Hope its ok to post these pics here and that it doesn't slow anyones computer down. Anyway, I threw one in of my son and daughter before her haircut... nobody look at that! 
Just some pics I took today. I am still adjusting the string, but the string test indicates I have no warping
probably shoulda mowed before taking a picture
I just haven't gotten around to ordering new ribbon cable and that corrosion HD, or prettying up the dish. It worked great over at my dads house, he didn't have sparklies on the Hbo's or whatever till the pole went out of level. He's 20 mins away from me, and it didn't seem at the time that the settings were working so I moved them. If thats what you mean, as in flawed. I don't think thats my problem. I just need to use one of those super sat finders Also checking if I have the feedhorn in the true middle, but I am having a hard time using my head and figuring how i can accurately line this stuff up, without buying that $150 feedhorn laser. Any ideas? The dish moving arm moves the right half of the mount. (is this called a western setup?) the middle of that square polar axis is a pivot point. The dish origionally came with a M/A Comm descrambler, so im hoping it had something to do with that company, and not all homemade, but i don't know. it'll go east until that rusted weld of the mount touches the bottom left bolt on the pole mount. Might even like to change to quad leg, but that may be above me at the moment. I want to be a real hobbist and play with different feedhorns eventually, hopefully. The dish depth is 18.5 inches, is this average or acceptable for keeping out TI?
Or whatever else that gooseneck was. Then again, the screen's all messed up too? May be worth some as scrap? hate say that about a big dish, but.... and pretty soon airplanes will use your lot as a landmark.

Did you do the optional tour where you get to climb up inside of it? The smaller KU dishes at the base are pretty cool to you get to steer them around and lock signals yourself inside the info. centre.
