SG9210 installation

[mr3p]

First off, big thanks to Robby at WSI. I had the pleasure of meeting him in person at the Los Angeles office and I'm fortunate to have local access to his store. Hopefully I'll find some time to get the 1.2M dish installed.

I currently have a WS9036 installed on a SG9210 with LOS from 79-125W. Installation was pretty easy for me as 119W is essentially due south so setup was almost as simple centering the motor at 119 and almost everything lined up with USALS.

My question is why does the SG9120 have two install points on the motor bracket? Both seem to have degree settings and I've seen people use both for installation. Just curious why two mounting points/scales on the motor bracket?

all motors have 2 scales, one is a latitude scale and the other is an elevation scale

On the SG-9120's bracket, there are two scales per side. These are for two different ranges of latitude. Here is a post in my review where the two scales are shown in the pictures.

Ugh. thanks guys. Sometimes the obvious is too easy to overlook. As my latitude is somewhat between and possible on both scales, it went right over my head. Thanks for the pictures Tron.

No problem... Let us know when it is up and running!

The 1meter dish has been up for a while although I should spend some time and tweak the signal a bit. I'm hoping to have some time to put up the 1.2m next week.
