[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 818192, member: 325666"] Hi Shadbolt .. A 1.8PF is an excellent tool for Cband dxing. Is it a Prime Focus or Offset ? You don't say which. If a PF then I'd recommend at the focus ..as setting up an offset on such a dish isn't easy ..and of course ..such a large lnb plus feed will mask some signal reception. If it's an offset then you can try mounting either side of the focus ..and adjusting the dishes position accordingly.. shouldn't be more than a few clicks if using a Vbox positioner. Please post any results with pictures if possible.. ..and welcome to the party.. We have a few UK Cband dxers ..but I don't think we have any in Ireland so results will be interesting. If it's a fixed dish installation btw ..the further from the focus you place the lnb ...the less you will get.. ..and do remember Cband signals are much weaker than most ku. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
