[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 856259, member: 325666"] So ..I got impatient .. No surprise there.. Went out and fitted the modded SL3 on Neil... No Idea what I'm looking at fequency wise ..all I can tell you is that it's Ka low band and pointing at Astra 19.2 East. Here are 2 scans first in H and then in V.. Only one of the probes is effectively in use due to the slot positioning of the XMW feed ..and the disn of the SL3.. ie only one of its probes actually in the bottom of the waveguide..the other is offset outside the waveguide ..and signals are funneled sideways to it. Making it neccessary to manually rotate the assembly to receive the opposite polarity.. But I DO believe this is now accepting linear feeds to that one central probe.. There is a massive peak resolveable in H ..and I'm also attatching the constellation 32psk.. I believe this is appearing in what is considered to be 'the military use part of the Ka spectrum'. There is a second smaller peak ..but I can't lock this atm.. maybe circular ..maybe just not strong enough.. I certainly think this is at least a partial success.. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
