Thanks fellow SatelliteGuys user!

Thanks user spongella for the mount idea. It works great. Aimed at 97W right now

and working perfect

Now you want to receive more satellites, don't you? Will you try multi-LNBs on your fixed dish or start thinking about a motor?

Dish network back in the 90s made patio mounts for their dishes. You may have luck in finding one.

Could also put Quickrete in a pickle bucket and mount a pole that way-

 

[harshness]

Buckets don't offer the torsional resistance that something with a wider stance offers. They also don't work very well on un-level and/or non-flat surfaces (though neither do NPRMs or pallets).

Some sort of three-footed contraption is probably best for all conditions.

This is largely temp. Plan is to perhaps eventually throw it on a ground pole, may be adding a motor to the setup as I already find the switching between the 2 satellites I like, G17 and SES3 tedious.

 

[spongella]

FTARock20, I have used that type of mount for motorized setups too, but keeping the mount level is a must. Tnx for the kudos and enjoy FTA.

I've not tried a motor on these.

Set this one up a few years back, H-H motorized dish on a pallet.
