I only have a 2.20m antenna for the C-band. With this, most C-band transponders can only be received very closely. So I made the LNB rotatable to receive all polarities and it can be moved in the waveguide of the AV-KOMM. With this technology I get up to 2.5 dB more signal on bad transponders.

best regards

I only have the same size antenna for C-band but it does really help when you find another way of obtaining H/V/L/R polarity other than the usual 'plate' slab :Y.
