What size conduit for the Dish

[Mike Doe]

I have a D* system in route to me and would like to know what size conduit (pipe) the dish will mount on.
I will not be using the bracket that comes with the system and would like to get pole installed in the ground b4 it arrives.

Thanks!

Use 1 5/8 inch dia. I found a galvanized fence post from a chain link fence is the perfect size.

yes use this size post and if your going to set it in concrete beat one end of the post with a hammer to oblong it so it wont turn in the concrete in high winds also fill the post up with concrete
