I just setup my new skyvision 8.5 ft dish.The only way to describe the dish is wow.I was using a fortecstar 6ft dish before i got the new dish.I am scanning from 58w to 139w and the reception is awesome.I receive a quality signal of 90 or above on all satellites between 58w and 139w on an 8.5 ft dish.I am using 2 norsat 8115 lnb's and a multiswitch which runs to a coolsat 5000 and a manhatann plaza st 550 pvr with 300 gig hardrive.It also controls my actuator and moves ther dish.I also have a fortec mercury II and a toshiba trx 2200 analog hooked to the multiswitch a total of 4 receivers.It took me about 10 minutes to find tune the dish after installation.I am really suprised by the high quality readings i am getting with this dish.

Mite want to look for a 905 or 922 for some free DCII channels, and the ability to sub if you ever want to since you see all the main sats for subs.

Enjoy the big dish its the best system around :)
 
Nice NPRM mount. Did you buy it somewhere or you made it? I am looking for one like that.
Thanks
