From this point out I can say I have installed my last Wingard dish.

LMAO !!! Winegard rules the dish world - always has - always will. Why do you think it has no side braces?? It doesn't need them because it is designed to resist wind loads better than Fortec or any other dish out there. Installing Winegard is a snap too. No side braces mean 2 less holes to drill into brick and 2 less Tapcon screws. Just MHO...
