[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 744750, member: 325666"] Still 'testing' this ALPS lnb strapped to the side of the C band scalar plate .. No focal length adjustment done ..so its all a bit pot luck /heath robinson atm .. I find Im about 3 > 4 degrees off target for known C band stored positions within the Vbox ..but is so far performing reasonably well ..at least as far as 39East .. Just pulled in greek orthodox TV on Hellas Sig 90% Qual 71% .. Not bad I think for a naked LNB held on with rubber bands.. ;) rgds VS Just an afterthought .... Since I know I can't push the Alcoa to see beyond 64 deg East ...I find I can't see TMB on 62 East with the ALPS stapped to the Eastern edge of the C band scalar plate .. 62 + 4 deg making 66 deg ..which of course I can't get the dish to .. but ..I will try moving the naked ALPS to the western edge of the Scalar plate .. In theory this _should give me an extra 4 degrees East to play with .. Making TMB visible ..and maybe 68deg East ??? ya gotta try ... afterall ..nothing ventured etc.. VS [/QUOTE]
