Improve signal: cassegrain or correct F/D ?

[koansrc]

Assuming you had 100€ to throw at your sat systems would you :

a) invest in a cassegrain kit and keep the fairly decent lnb OR
invest in an LNB and dish-matched feedhorn ?

I guess you are talking about the Tecatel Gregorian upgrade kit for your antenna.

If it works as it should you will be getting better results than a new LNB and feed.

I would love to test your dish with my Fibo Gregorian parts i have left over from my 120cm.

I have studied your antenna you have and i beleive it's a exact clone of the Fibo 120cm main reflector, same size and width and the same F/D.

Probably Tecatel cloned the Fibo 120cm dish.

Yes it is a kit I have spotted on their site and looking into. Can't seem to link to the manual and specs yet... and can't seem to find any info on the web... yet.

Is the LNB or the F/D an issue in a gregorian setup ?

 

[koansrc]

It's not on their site but it is in their catalogue. They claim it will give 0.7dB increase. That sounds pretty good I guess. Strange they only seem to have a kit for the 1.35m dish.

Anyone know how to buy one of these ?

Probably Tecatel cloned the Fibo 120cm dish.

Maybe so. Couldn't find detailed photos of Fibo 120. Interesting Tecatel now call it a 135cm ... !
