[QUOTE="nelson_b, post: 990653, member: 296628"] As i mentioned in post 22, receiving 4050V is a struggle on the 1.8 c.m. due to the l.n.b. being offset. And i do like to have the Indian channels for some of the music content ... and the bonus is the Reuters feed on the same transponder. So i thought i would give it a try on the Alcoa 1.8 p.f. as its been sitting mostly unused since the change of k/u beams at 42E . i already had a home made C band l.n.b. holder from experiments in the past ... i tried a number of l.n.b.f,s ... all were below or borderline lock at best ... ended up with a hybrid... scalar and l.n.b from an old co rotor and the feed tube that came with the 3 m Prodelin .... so i,m fixed to one polarity .. but that,s all i want from this sat anyway. Very happy with the results from a very old petalised dish and the ancient bits and pieces fastened to it :) [ATTACH]99281[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]99282[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]99283[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]99284[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
