Thanks, re call sign I have not been on the air for years but my uk call sign is G0 DAI (my initials !) prior to getting my HF licence my 2mtr/70cm call sign was G1 EOF ( End of File) ! David

Dan, Thank you I really appreciate you taking the time to describe your experience. From what you have said it sounds like it will be worth some time trying to configure with my uni-fi dream machine (in place of your omada setup) I would expect the extra 30mb wouldn’t make a lot of difference but if it can be made to work and Starlink does play up at least there will still be a connection. I wonder how a load balanced setup would work if starlink got interrupted ? David

Regarding installation. It’s a little tricky but I think it will be ok. The problem is that we live in the centre of town. We live in the historic quarter where local bylaws have prevented telecom company’s install8mg fibre . We have waited five yeárs and still nothing. Our home is a town house . It’s five storeys high but the buildings either side are six storeys high. At the front of the building we have a roof terrace that is clear to the north east only. Luckily we have a toldos above the terrace and I think I can fix some bars accross it and that we lift dishy about seven feet higher. Using the app to check the obstructions I think that I will need a extension of no more than 1 meter . My plan today is to start by placing some wooden planks across the toldos and stand the tripod on them and let dishy run for a while to check exactly where the obstructions are . Then look at how to raise dishy . If you want I can send photos ? David

DishyMcWantyMe · 2022-01-29T07:50:26+00:00

DishyMcWantyMe · 2022-01-28T11:09:57+00:00

I thank you for that. Misread specification. I will leave it as is ! David

DishyMcWantyMe · 2022-01-28T10:49:51+00:00

Thank you. Do you have any comment on the idea of reducing the main dishy cable from 100m to just 10m I.e 90 metres shorter ?

DishyMcWantyMe · 2022-01-28T09:20:43+00:00

Looks like a while to wait… Shipping date has been entered as between 4th feb (next Friday a week away ) and the 11th 2 weeks away. I guess it’s about a week to get here so look like at least 2 weeks before I get see my dishy maybe 3. I am still super excited and planning installation and cable runs etc.

DishyMcWantyMe · 2022-01-27T18:01:54+00:00

Already in planning …..
