Re: [AFMUG] Force 110 assembly - anyone else having problems?
Maybe try another one out of the 4 pack and see if it's the same way? Maybe you just got "lucky" with the first one... On Mon, Dec 8, 2014 at 11:19 PM, Alan West via Af wrote: > Does not work for me.

Re: [AFMUG] Force 110 assembly - anyone else having problems?
Does not work for me. I tried it that way, could only get one of the four tabs
to lock. The tolerances are way tight on this unit. It took all my might to get
the feedhorn in the hole of the dish (putting the horn in first), and it will
not bottom out like it is supposed to so the tabs can reach their holes. This
is a major disappointment for me.

That's what I thought at first, I'ma gonna break somethin...
I stuck the feedhorn in first. Put the back bracket and mount on. Put the four
allen-head screw in hand tight. Put some pressure on the front of the feedhorn
and push on the back of the bracket at each of the four locking tab points.
They click in place. Tighten the four allen screws. Put the front reflector on,
mount the radio, etc. Fairly easy after the first one.

tabs to go into the holes for themI would probably break something.
Seriously, I put the Force 100 together faster, and you know how bad it is...I
hope the other three are not like this or they will go back to the supplier.
