@radfast So what you're saying is to move what looks like the current axis point from the bottom (I'm only guessing this by the design) and placing it on the dish itself, like the moon buggy? Also, I doubt that you'd want the handle part of your saucepan included, but I might be wrong from you describing a Y-shaped arm. Could you include more detail as what exists at the meeting point of the dish and the pole to which it attaches to? In my interpretation, it is as this shows:
A Y shaped arm on top of a swivel. The arm rotates the dish up/down, and the swivel adds 360 rotation.
Hmm...maybe this is me thinking about what this new item could do, but let me add my opinion. Perhaps just like the display screen shows the Overworld, preforming a telemetry link allows you to do the same for the space station. Pretty neat, but let's keep going. Currently the short range teleporter allows for 250 block transportation. But what if there was one on the station, connected to a dish, and you had the same setup on the Overworld? I've seen a few people express wants for a short range rocket for space station travel. Alternate idea?
@Ezer'Arch The way I'm imagining this is basically the same as taking the advanced solar panel's base, removing the solar panel, and adding a dish where it was. Just like the panel did, the dish pivots where it connects to the arm of the base. But this arm is actually 2 arms in a Y shape as per the picture above, and they turn with the dish to allow 360 rotation.
