my new free dish

[phlatwound]

new dish is now motorized and working like a charm
thanks guys for the ideas on the dish mod.

Cool! Did you use the HH120 motor, and can you take a pic more from the side where we can see the motor and mount better? :up

Yes, that's what I wanted: some side and 3/4 views.
I recognize the general design, but whatever details you came up with , would be instructive!

Also, can you compare signal levels to your previous 1.2m Fortec?

more pics phlatwound also there is about 10% to 15% increase in quality over the fortec and living in northern canada i need all the quality i can.
bracket is from a old 30in starchoice dish which i had around the house ,and the HH120 motor has know problem moving it.

Im glad you got yours motorized. It looks as if it is offset a bit by the pictures.
The bolts where you mounted the board to looks like they are closer to one side than the other. Does this make a difference or did you do it on purpose for a reasone?

also channelmaster made a nice difference in signal quality over the fortec

fortec sat 129ku(white springs) 85% quality now 91%
channelmaster sat 101ku(rtpi) 85% now 94%

yes its closer to one side than the other but i just manually adjust it using Diseq 1.2 on the coolsat remote .
