Looks like a nice dish and a clean install.
Wouldn't know too much about this myself but I'm sure some of the more experienced lads will be along soon with some details on what you have.

The Dish is good. It's a pity that the guy who installed it used a bracket belonging to a Raven Zone 2 dish and fitted the wall bracket sideways.

You have taken a gamble hiring in a guy who is not in the Tv trade. This guy probably has no Pl insurance .

To be honest the dish he installed is designed for a 2inch bracket not a bracket for a sky dish. He fitted the bracket sideways on the wall {handy for him to do this because holes were already drilled}

Also he should offered to remove the old bracket off the wall.
