    Default 90cm Dish

    I just wondered what 90cm Sat Dish is recommended by users here. I just set up a Hills one and found it rather difficult to get the angles 45° sorted. Unlike the small foxtel style dish these things don't have the setup as clear as one would like on the equipment.

    I mostly use Azure Shine dishes.

    Nothing wrong with the Hills models though.

    What do you mean by finding it "rather difficult to get the angles 45° sorted"?

    If you mean the elevation angle, there are scales etched on the mount.

    As always, they are a guide only and you will always have to make adjustments to peak signal levels using a meter.

    i found the bolt action adjustment a bit 'untidy' . The smaller dish have 45° clearly stated in the stamping on the metal so you know where you are. Just new to the larger dish so i thought i'd ask if there were better options. The Hills units instruction sheet was / is a joke I had to call Hills and have them send me photos of a unit assembled so i could work out what went where.
