My new setup with Jaeger SMR1224 H-H mount

[Likvid]

I have now converted from the old Moteck SG2100A i had before to the new Jaeger SMR1224 H-H motor and done some mods to make it work.

Here is the result, enjoy

Please note i live in Europe.

nice pictures!


Is the reason the elevation is so low because of the dual reflector?

Thanks.

Actually i live close to the polar circle in Scandinavia, that's the reason the elevation is so low.

Highest satellite here in south is about 22 degress.

Highest satellite here in south is about 22 degress.

and I thought mine was bad in Minnesota (true south is 38 on a fixed dish and 23 declination on a motorized)

How is the speed of the dish moving as compared to the SG2100?

Whats the specs on that motor as far as what type of dish it can move (weight and diameter)

It can drive dishes up to 2.4m, it's heavy duty designed for large dishes.

About three times as fast.

I noted on Jaeger's web site that it needs 36 volts and 1.5 amps to drive it. What are you using for positioning it?

I use a Jaeger V-BOX II connected to my Relook 400s receiver.

That explains the speed

Nice setup!

Do they sell these positioners locally? Or can they be shipped to the states at a reasonable price? I noticed that all I could find were overseas.

No i don't sell them, they can be bought from Germany.

If you want site address you can PM me for details.

Very nice setup! Wonder if these will work on the 1.2 meter and 1.8 meter Channel Masters...

Yes it's old school and not like the toy motors people use today.

However i would get a EGIS motor if i had a Andrew 1.8 or 2.4

Are you using the DGS factory software with your Relook? I have one and have had issues with it using the factory files with USALS. I understand there are other files for it that might fix the problem.
