Hello Glenn_911,

no, this list is about 2 years old and not up to date!

It´s more important to have frequencies of strong satpositions for 120cm dish and not, how much programms you can get with 120cm ;).

Regards
Edgar.

This device makes a huge improvement on C Band Offset dish systems.

To get construction details search Walrus1957.:-worship

Also WS International sells a good Conical Feedhorn for a fair price.

@ Edgar , Glenn send me the PM of You with the list of freq.
In that PM You are mention , its better to use a waveguide instead of the dielektrikum .
Can You tell me what that look like and how it works ?
I already found signal (and picture) at 40.5 W TP 3.977 TV BRASIL
Signal to on 55.5 W TP 4.134 but coded

Test done with Maxplus 2100 and Fibo gregorian dish .
Steered by Pace MSP 995
Corotor with no scalaring at all in front of the subreflector .

Hello Trust1,

a Waveguide feed brings about ~3dB, that´s much especially for small dishes. If you use a dielecrtica plate you loose more signal (d:cool:.

For PFA you must use a scalarring in front of the feed for C-Band!

If you want to see fotos of my dish with the waveguide feed, have a look here: _http://forum.dxtv.de/wbb/thread.php?threadid=7883&threadview=0&hilight=&hilightuser=0&page=15

Best Regards
Edgar.

Thanks , the org. KU-feedhorn on the Fibo gregorian dish has a diameter of 90 mm .
On his place I put the polarotor , i've tried it with PF scalaring , TRF (conical feed) and a home made 95 mm scalaring .
The best result was brought by the plain corotor , but the same result came with the 95 mm ring , therefore I have to move the polarotor further away from the subreflector .
Since the subreflector (230 mm) brings a spot of ± 90 mm , I think its useless to use a scalaring .

I've tried it also as a normal Offset dish , but that did'nt work better .
