      Standard Scaff poles are 2" diameter unlesss you got a 3" diameter rarely used, And yes the Dark Motor will stretch over a 3" diameter pole

        if you have a channel master/andrews dish then a polar mount and actuator would be better than any diseqc/usals motor.. also the AZ/EL mount wont fit on a dark motor anyway without some modified back plate as the stub faces down. look at the stab 120 if you must use a diseqc 1.2/usals motor, regards mdt

          hi , yep, just checked and my scaffold pole is 2 inches but measuring the motor mount you can use up to 3 inches as you say
