Nice on C-Bones!
I like the small deflector dish in front of the LNB. Also the fact that there is a Dreambox in your set up!

Welcome to the Forum! :-welcome

I've always fancied a Gregorian myself. I didn't know they went above 1.2m though.

If you find a 1.8m one let me know if there's a second one!

Fibo never made a 1.8M gregorian dish, they made 55cm, 90cm, and 120cm.

Channel Master or Andrew what it is called now have a 1.8M Gregorian and a 2.4M.

But it's hefty prices around $3000 for the 1.8M.

Hej Johan,

Producerade ni någonsin en 180cm Gregoriansk parabol? eller var det bara 55cm, 90cm, samt 120cm?

Tack på förhand.

Howde - Couldn't resist posting a picture of my monitoring area... having spent three days with a soldering iron and a bag of cable ties refitting it all! Pictured are Technomate TM1000-CI, Scientific Atlanta 9661 and 9225 PowerVu receivers, S*cam transcoder, JVC VHS recorders, Sony UVW-1400 Betacam SP recorder, Sony PCM-2700 DAT recorder and a PPM meter bridge. All are switched centrally on mains distribution units and housed in twin 46u racks. The dish is a motorised 120cm ISS dish up on the flat roof. And people think I'm a nerd????... ho-hum!!! :-)

Tom.

That's a very professional installation Tom. Definitely not your (my) run-of-the mill domestic setup :)

Here's some larger shots of the monitoring area, this isn't its full time purpose... I'm a video editor during working hours, hence the various bits of broadcast kit. It just seemed wrong to have a flat roof, a whole load of sky and a racks room without a bloody big dish to complete the picture!
