Whats the best dish?

[Blue Hawk]

Have a motorized 1M Lenson Heath dish at present. I want to upgrade to 1.2M. Advice please on which is the best to get? There doesn't seem to be a site that deals with dish specs.

triax problem newbie.

I have a 1.1 triax fixed to scaffold pole fixed to concrete but still vertically adjustable [tripod base] My question is. what would you do to get motorised, buy polar mount, 36v actuator and v box. or buy a smaller dish and use stab type diseqc controlled thingy. tm 1500ci+ If I should be posting this item elswhere please move.

i wouldnt get 36v and vbox myself. Nothing wrong with diseqc/usals motor, especially suited to the tm1500, just make sure it can handle 1.1m dishes. Motors generally say 'up to 1m' or 'up to 1.2m' or some say 'up to 1.4m' and anything over that does really need 36v.
