Has anyone experience on actuating a Satellite dish to cover several Satellites. I have a ground fixed pole mounted motorized dish. Unfortunately it has to be removed due to trees being felled nearby.
I want to reinstall it afterwards, but as the trees have been causing subsidence, there is a chance the ground will move afterwards making it possibly need mechanically readjusting all the time. I have seen an alternative to the verticle pole, where the dish is placed on it's back on a horizontal turntable on the ground. The turntable is rotated, while the angle on the dish is pushed up/down by a linear motor piston type motor. The version I saw had a dome over the assembly resembling a radar scanner cover on a warship.
Just wondered if anyone has done such a project. Ideal for rooftops where you want to conceal a dish.
