[QUOTE="a33, post: 1075850, member: 332642"] As the focal distance doesn't change by adding dish surface, I don't think you'd get more signal by putting the LNB out of the focal point. [I]Edit: However, I remember testing LNB distance with an LNB that was OUT of the focal point, and there wasn't much signal difference. So maybe there could be [B]a little[/B] improvement of signal by doing that. But never an improvement that would match the surface augmentation. And it is not ideal, to have the LNB feedhorn out of the focal point....[/I] [USER=212306]@italy2006[/USER] : As I already wrote: So, as you obviously like experimenting: are you gonna make a matching feedhorn for your augmented dish?
