March 30, 201411 yr Hello all good people, I have a PSI D185 mesh dish installed at my roof in Germany. It is unfortunately atm FIXED (pics attached), I cant rotate it as I do not have its Polar Mount! I have tried several times contacting PSI Holdings in Thailand by phone & email from here but never got any reply from them. As far as I know, not every Polar Mount fits with every satellite dish, it has to be from the same model/company or very similar, no? I also did send emails about this to Infosat, Ideasat, Dynasat, etc, hoping they might be able to send me one here, but no reply! Seems like English language is not widely spoken in Thailand. Your help/info/suggestion is highly appreciated! Cheers
March 30, 201411 yr a google search in Thailand doesn't reveal much on the PSI D185 (MOVE), the polar mount version of your dish. all the websites I found are in Thai:: b2bthai.com PSI D185(MOVE) or itcare.tarad.com or tss-services.com (PSI D185 Fixed mount vs polar mount) If you know what you want, you might be able to convince one of the locals to act as a go-between and find a local reseller to ship it to you. While I understand wanting to find the polar mount for this dish, your other option is to replace the dish (reflector) component with something easier to obtain and maintain in Germany. Or, if the other 'birds' you want to view are close to each other you could try mounting multiple LNBF's on the fixed dish. SatBeams.com/Footprints Thaicom 5 at 78.5°E Elevation angle: 5.9° | LNB Tilt (skew): 34.9° | True azimuth: 109.7° Elev 5.9° ...ouch!
March 31, 201411 yr Author it was a joy to see that PSI polar mount cheers for the links, i've already sent emails/msgs to all three of them. hopefully they get back to me! i will let you know as soon as. your 2nd option: highly unlikely, because in Germany there's hardly any sat shop familiar with C-band/mesh antennas. your 3rd option: yes, i already thought of that as the last resort. here's a double "ouch" for you: i'm watching 76.5°E, who's elevation is 4.4° from here
