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. | ||
