Looking at Likvid's new 55cm dish pics, I thought the feed horn looked in a different position to mine. ![]() After some confering with him, it appears that there is a difference. ![]() It would be interesting to find out why there is a difference and when it occured. ![]() If members with Fibo 55cm dishes could measure the centres of the fixing holes on the arm, dish to Feedhorn, and feedhorn to sub-reflector, and post here with perhaps serial no. or approx age of dish if poss. it might shed some light, or perhaps confusion. ![]() My distances are 246mm and 134mm ser.no. 11934 Likvid's are 230mm and 150mm ser.no. 00004 ![]() PS I wonder if there are similar changes on the other sizes.
