Ain't it a new Mounting bracket you'd be looking for, rather than a complete new Dish, m8?

Any more details on the dish you bought? I thought all was polemount unless it is an oddball dish.

As LraiZer posted, Wizzards is as good as anywhere, cheap and good kit. I seen them get slated in some forums but I can't fault any of the dish stuff I bought from them, better kit than I expected.

Just to add though, you have to be careful getting a motor with propper usals/gotoXX support.

I had awfull problems a few years ago with a new unbranded motor when usals first came about, the supplier kept fobbing me off over the phone saying there was nothing wrong with it.

I ended driving over to the supplier with the motor (well known supplier near Leeds, won't touch them with a barge pole now), he took me into his workshop and tested the motor in front of me and finally admitted it was faulty (shit was his wording).

He then opened up 2 others in sealed boxes and tested in front of me and admitted they was all shit with the same problem and he would stop selling them. So we agreed to pay a few quid more for a better branded motor he had in stock.

The alternative was better but still a bit hit or miss, I ended up buying a genuine stab motor from Germany (cheaper than any supplier in UK even with the poatage) and it still works perfect to this day with Usals after many years of use.

I bought a cheap Motek motor from wizzards from my dad a year or 2 ago worried I may be revisiting the same issue.

But the cheap Motek one from Wizzards works perfect with usals and has less gear slack than my genuine Stab motor.

Looking at Wizards, it appears they only do Technomate motors now, and I read nothing but praise for Technomate motors.

Stay away from cheap unbranded motors is what I'm saying.
