[amsat-bb] RE:TVRO Polar mounts for AO-40

[AL Lyday <wc9c_al@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Bob 
I have been using this for my 10' dish since may. It
works very Good! I have added a second
actuator so that I can adjust the EL/Trim. Once the
sat
comes up I find it Peak it and then just follow it
using the West control on my TVRO dish controller.
I dont know why more are not using this. 
Then also when AO40 is not in view or I want to use
the dish for TVRO I just readjust it down 5degs.
