[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 972841, member: 325666"] Still persuing that 10500 data at 1.5ghz ... I can lock the narrower band data streams most of the time but not the wideband stuff with my homebrew Helical and LNA4ALL ... This has tied up Carl at 15W for long periods ...so having already tried already with a mismatched coax and connectors on a 60cm I got no useable results ..so contacted my friend Digi247 regarding gattting a larger dish to dedicate to Inmarsat at 15W. Previously He has got for me Dishes branded Orbital ..but His supplier no longer stocks them ..so went on Ebay .. Non on there either .. Have they gone out of business ? I did get a 1.1m branded Maxx ...for about£30 delivered ... Is this Orbital re-badged perhaps ? Now this dish will be much closer to the house ..just the other side of the playroom outside wall ...so a shorter run of RG58 .. ..which hopefully will help with signal levels /losses .. And since the helical was getting _some_ results on Carl ...the 1.5m ...and offset several degrees from focus ...I'm hopefull that the helical on shorter cable run (probably 5mtrs as opposed to 15 >20 mtrs ...and at the focus rather than offset will yield results .. fingers crossed.
