Winegard 1 meter dish and a SG 2100

Archived from groups: alt.video.satellite.mpeg-dvb (More info?)

I am replacing my existing 1 meter dish with a Winegard 3100 1 meter dish.
I hav a stock SG 2100 HH mover. I looked at options for mating the two.
Doing a Google search, I found on DVB resource page one install where the
user drilled some additional holes in the SG 2100, filled them with some
hydraulic cement and then mounted the Winegard. The comment was that the
SG2100's cast aluminum neck is too soft to withstand the Winegard 1 meter
dish. The specs show a 24 lb weight limit on the SG 2100 and the Winegard
is 22 lbs. Anyone have any other optional installs or options for this
pair? Is the hydraulic cement really needed?

Here is the link to the forementioned install:

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Hello all, I got the system up and going using my existing SG 2100 and the
Winegard 3100. Working on the acutal arc alignment . Does anyone have a
link as to aligning the far east and west birds? Whether to adjust
declination or elevation to properly align things?

TIA
