By now many folk out there know about our Mighty Mini Tracker (big dish controller). But thats been only half of the story. We spoke about two models being available. With that said Rainier is pleased to announce the other side of the story with the introduction of the Mighty Mini Heavy Duty Version. The Mighty Mini’s BIG BROTHER!

Our new Heavy Duty version is designed and built for installations where a basic mover just won’t do. Our HD Plus model includes Rainer’s Proprietary PPPT eight element Power Punch Plus circuit with thermal overload shutdown. It’s designed for cold climates and installs where an extra start-up punch is needed.

Utilizing the experience of Rainier’s highly skilled personal from our engineering department with over 40 years electronic engineering experience we came up with a unique small design that packs the punch needed that no other consumer grade mover can compare with. Our proprietary PPPT circuit utilities military grade specifications and redundancy standard in the design. Its designed, built, assembled, then integrated into the basic Mighty Mini at our facilities in the U.S.A. Units are individually tested by qualified Rainier personal to insure each unit meets the demanding specifications Rainier requires. It’s Top Quality from the ground floor up.

Rainier Satellite is proud to announce we are now a dealer for and selling the Best Quality solid well built, bug free mover made today, the Pansat AP 600.

We have tested them all, from the low cost V box 7, V box II, and all the off names of the V box family. To the high cost Titanium ASC-1, They all fell short of the quality and robustness we were looking for.

The V Box family had issues, it failed in cold climates, under continuous use, or moving 8 foot larger, or heavier dishes. We could not settle or justify selling a product to our customers with these multiple issues.

We also tested the Titanium ASC-1 but were quickly disappointed by its problems. Most noted its runaway motor control, (it quickly runs your dish to the end of its travel by itself when an incorrect key is pushed, or senses something incorrectly) This is dangerous, and can ruin dishes (dish flip) and actuators (bent arms). Other bugs and problems cropped up too, too many to mention here. Once again, we were just not satisfied with it nor could endorse, or sell a product like this to our customers.

We needed something that was guaranteed to work well under all conditions and not buggy for our customers. We took the same into consideration when finding a receiver for our services. It must work and work well, this is our goal. Rainier Satellite prides itself on selling only quality fully tested products.

So what was Left?

We needed a product that would work as well as the 4DTV or other quality built C band satellite receivers tracker did, bug free. Well the AP 600 actually does just that. It performs flawless, and is bug free. We are very happy with its solid robust performance.

If you look under the AP 600’s hood its build on the old school electronic design just like the old satellite receivers which worked so well.

Its a breath of fresh air to see something built with the old school design quality (AP-600) and integrity that served C band so well for many years.

Everything today seems to be based on low cost cheap robotic sub-mini design. (ASC-1 example below)

Or uses cheap underrated parts like the V Box family. Inside the V-Box models you can see the cheaply made poor design with its under rated transformer.
