Winegard 2076 upgrades

[Magic Static]

My first FTA dish had to move. So I added some upgrades. I fabbed some LNB supports from 3/8" steel brake line. I replaced the SG2100 with a SG9120b. I installed a "Walrus Elevation Adaptor". This dish has never worked better. The elevation control is so sweet. Dan is the MAN!!

Nice workmanship! Very creative mast mount as well!

very nice. I always though of putting braces on the sides of my 2076 dish but never got to it

Nice mods and mount. My invacom does tend to bounce in the wind without support arms. Looks like something I will be doing very soon.

I remember when the Walrus posted pictures of those adapters.
Maybe you could include the link for others who might want to follow up?

I went looking for side support material for a Ku dish, and couldn't find anything so small.
Extra points for the brake lines.
Think I wound up with 1/2" or 3/4" conduit, myself.

A couple of the longer elements from a junk OTA antenna works great. I attached these with self-drilling panhead phillips screws, 5 minutes from start to finish.
