I went to help out a fellow satellite enthusiast get his dishes tuned in well and come across an absolute travesty for a dish mount from Tek2000. Has anyone seen anything remotely this shoddy?? This dish came like this new in 2018!! I had to give up because the declination bolt was too short and we only needed 5.3 degrees...
I hate that I couldn't help more, but this is wack workmanship.

Found it! But cannot edit my post anymore.

I'm stumped as to the point of these bolts on the sides of where you measure the elevation? These are not tapping anything and just looks terrible. I'm worried the dish will not stay plumb on the mount if any wind hits it at all while it is down on either end of the arc. I'd never pay for that.

The dish wobbles like crazy in the wind and always goes out of alignment.
My kti never wobbles.
If you find a way to fix it then let me know.
I drop it down to 43w on windy days. In the spring here in NM, that's alot of days.
