    Anyone tried to make BIG dish at home?

    Yes, free BBC and Freesat which means ITV and more. It is about satelite footprint not about crypting. It is free for long time. I saw BBC HD etc yesterday on 80 dish. I will check it this weekend, I must setup dish for it on roof. JH

    BBC and english Freesat changed satelite. Here in Prague is full signal on small dish now instead nothing on 150 dish. Try reception, it should be much more better. I do not know actual footprint but looks fine. JH

    I have no idea how to make differencial amp on microwave. Board design is not so easy. Looks possible to use other polarisation input as input for front element but .... Enclosed are pictures of LNB boards.

    Thank you Frank, looks designed for offset dishes (not surprising). Round older parabolic dishes have usually about 0.35 and new universal LNB is not too convenient for it. I would like check my offset dishes for f/d if it is right, but roof is with snow now :-) Happy New Year!

    Anyone tried to make BIG dish at home?

    True. For end of all pipes from all dishes (-: must be something like that. I mean fine adjustment before pipes connected together. I think feritte inside polarizer just shape magnetic field becouse it could not do something on microwave directly. Something like static magnet. For small...

    Yes, it is result. I did not think about skew yet. It should be about pipes angels only. How to a bit change skew to adjust system? Ferrite-magnetic polarizer, what I can remeber.
