Motor for Hotdish 90?

[Blindowl1234]

Any preferences on what motor to use for a Hotdish 90? There is a little tab on the mount that would have to be bent to allow use of a SG2100 etc...Looks like it's made for maybe a STAB motor?
Could I use a SG2100 without problem? Thanks Blind

I thought the makers of the Hotdish 90 said NOT to use a motor with it....

PSB's take on the Hotdish 90 from back in 2004

Nevermind, I was probably thinking of the Hotdish 75

Hotdish 90 can be used on a motor. Few folks have done it here

Hotdish 75 cannot do to the way the bracket is set up (tth top is sealed so you cant get a motor shaft from the top into it)

Just Bend that Tab up and you'll be fine !

Thanks for the input guys. This is my first project (for my brother) outside of my dish farm. LOS issues yesterday as he has a very small yard with a two story house like his within 100 feet....after mounting a pole and no luck hitting 97w or 101w it's up to the steep roof next week, Blind
