Hello,
what dishdiameter? I could setup 1,5 Meters offset for me!
Thx
2.0 metre Precision Antennas prime focus dish, single piece, spun aluminium.
Fitted with Titanium C2PLL twin probe LNBF inserted into a polo pipe, no dielectric plate in use
The dish size is dependent on your location with respect to the beam footprint.
I am in the UK and currently have about 1dB margin above the level required for a signal lock. This particular frequency seems to get stronger in late afternoon and early to mid evening.
Note: The satellite uses circular polarity, if you try with your 1.5m dish you will need some capability to cope with the circular polarity.
