    Nice dish I use a KTI couldn't find Orbitron in Perth when I wanted one
    are you still using a Zinwell LNB-F if so bin it because they are one of the worst Lnb's on the market.
    And yes I can lock Both Topas Tv frequencies. On a side note I just went to move the dish back To Palapa to give you a screenshot and the poxy actuator just froze... Guess thats my Job for this Arvo

    how come you locked ses7 sband ?
    what sizes the dish ?

    i thinks foot print in perth much better then melbourne, i got friend in sydney, he is using the dishes 14ft but could not lock palapa vertikal, that's weird

    I don't go and look at the dish very often so I hadn't noticed the palm leaves hanging over until I took the pictures
    Mind you it explains why I have been getting a weaker than normal signal on Measat 3. Guess Ill be pruning tomorrow

    ses 7 I used to watch Indovision
    and the dish is a 3.7 metre (12 foot)
    as for your friend in Sydney unless his 14 foot dish is a cheapie he should easily get the palapa verticals. I would be looking at the lnb /skew etc .
    the verticals are on this beam and east has far better coverage than perth.

    Just get a genuine S-Band Lnb from Indonesia its for a offset dish but I modded it to fit my dish .
    you can get them here as well



    I just drilled and tapped four holes to allow me to bolt my dish arms on. I will see if I can find it out and take a picture even though its for a offset dish it works fine ..

    I have heard of Daengsat but I don't know him.
