LNB feed arm bent, need replacement

[jbigbryw]

My tripod mounted AU9-S 5 LNB dish blew down in a storm and bent the LNB feed arm (it now wobbles.) My tripod is now FIRMLY anchored but I can no longer get any signal on my dish. The feed arm looks slightly bent at an up angle as well as wobbling up and down.

Is it possible to get just a feed arm without ordering a whole new dish? I bought this one from Solid Signal and installed it myself since I am in an RV and DTV will not send out an installer for that (or even give me a dish although I did talk them into sending me an HR20 for shipping cost only.) Everything else on the dish looks ok and the feed arm is easy to replace if I can get my hands on one.

I've never known to be able to get just the arm. I guess it's possible, but i think you will have a hard time finding just the arm. If it fell and bent the arm, you may have LNB damage you can't see as well.
It may be easier at the end of the day to just buy another.

Good luck.

Look for a dish on ebay. Eventhough you just need the arm at least you'll have spare parts for thre dish.

"Slightly" bent doesn't sound like a total loss of signals.
The arm is part of the mount, so this only leaves the reflector & the LNB assembly as "the other parts".
Somebody must have "the tin" left over from replacing the LNB, but I agree with those that say to get a complete dish so you will have everything you need.

get a new dish .. replacing a part wont fix it .. its torqued out of shape and the tolerances are too tight
