  • hi mate i set alot of motorised dishes up and to be honest the bracket your using how on earth do you make that plumb on the level that bracket has to be perfectly plumb both ways or you wont get viasat at all mate. i would use a t&k bracket so you can plumb the pole up perfect.

    Agree on the T and K can't beat them but with this settup looking directly at the bracket left/right plum is reasonably easy. Re forwards and backwards if the wall mount is perfect then its easy if not you need to pack out the other arm to achieve plum.

    :shamon:

  • Finally gave in and bought a proper multi-lnb arm last night!


    3 x twin lnbs!


    2 x 4 diseqc switches!


    Lets hope when I get home the weekend it isn't as cold as it is now and can get some play time! :P


    Will post a few pics after!
