[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1076108, member: 178786"] [USER=296628]@nelson_b[/USER] Well done, your perseverance has paid off. I noticed the same with signal fluctuation during the day, the signal levels are like a rollercoaster. The other thing I noticed was that of the 3 frequencies that I locked, they all had a different optimum pair of settings for the feed/scalar. I am referring to the distance of the feed throat aperture from the dish and the location of the scalar along the feed barrel as a pair. I should point out that in order to get the feed throat aperture within the focal parameters of the dish I have the LNBF inserted into a non polo pipe without any steps. This pipe might be introducing some signal artefacts re the feed/scalar pair values? I have attached below the feed/scalar pair tables for the three frequencies that I locked. I am not sure how relevant they are, but the general trends seem to be reproducable. . [ATTACH type="full"]126048[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
