Temp satellite Dish mount mod.

I used the mod on the site with the suction cups to temp mount my satellite dish. It works okay if there is no real temp change. The problem is, with temp changes of over 10 degrees (like from night to day) the suction cups fail. They expand and contract faster then the fiberglass siding. So they fail.

What I did was bolted a furniture mover pad to the base of my dish. Then use 2 C clamps to temp mount it to my rig on the slide outs. This works very well, and no chance of it failing. I'm looking for 2 nylon C clamps so they wont rust.
