the antenna tube of TechniSat balcony stand is approximately 1 m high and has a diameter of only 25mm. Above the pipe is open, so that water can not penetrate. If you have a DigiDish, this dish can push it to the antenna pipe without any additional accessories, as the holder of the bowl and the antenna pipe to fit the diameter forth to each other. That was my reason to buy. I did not want to buy extra a TechniSat Anrohrfitting, which is required for attaching the DigiDish to Balkonständer other manufacturers. The Balkonständer be at 4 'retaining clips' or feet, in which a concrete / paving slab is inserted. The board must be 45mm high max. If the ground is not flat, put these 'feet' little, so you may still have to inferior wedges. Also, the antenna pipe wobbles in the wind a bit, because even lacking lateral support struts. To be stable in the wind, the mounting of the antenna pipe in the middle of a concrete slab would be generally favorable, but that would have to tinker yourself or buy a rack with 4 plates, but which takes away a lot of space. The setting of the bowl on this Balkonständer runs sth. Tricky, since there is only 1 locking screw for mounting. If you have the dish aligned exactly with slightly tightened screw u. Pulls the single screw for attaching to the balcony stand firmly, it warps a slightly again the bowl in both the horizontal and in the vertical axis. One would expect when tightening actually only with a distortion in the horizontal direction, but the retaining screw 'blurred' a the vertical adjustment, so you have to be challenged on as I said. As the setting for digital satellite is mm-work, the construction is thus rather unfavorable. Since there is only one fixing screw, it also ensures that you can re-adjust after a violent gust of wind, which was necessary, unfortunately, a few days ago. I have to stand since January and this was the first time that I had to slightly adjust due to a gust of wind. Who are protected throughout the stand but in the corner of a covered balcony, will probably have no problems and gets a balcony stand a very good price-performance ratio, because he Anrohr fitting can save yourself. My recommendation to buy would be: prefer a disk Balkonständer buy with rigid pipe diameter and with additional diagonal struts which prevent the pipe 'rock' in the wind can, plus the Anrohr-fitting, with which you can attach to the antenna pipe bowl bombproof and without fear that you tighten the lose laboriously found exact adjustment.
