[QUOTE="aceb, post: 799213, member: 268811"] I found enough time today to try the offset feed and C band LNB on the 1.2m Gibertini. The head end is in the correct plane thanks to the carefully bent up old Antiference boom but I've not fine tuned either the focal distance or the scalar. The weather hasn't really been conducive to standing around outside for any period time but I doubt there would be a huge difference anyway. My visible arc from this spot is 50E-60W so this is everything I've been able to get. 40E 14 TV/9Radio/1 Data 20E 31 TV/25 Radio 3.1E 8 TV 2.8E 1 Data 5W 64 TV/66 Radio 11W 1TV 18W 3 Data 22W 3 TV/1 Radio 24.5W 1 TV 27.5W 16 TV/19 Radio 37.5W 1 TV 40.5W 7 TV/22 Radio/16 Data 55.5W 36 TV/15 Radio/1 Data 58W 5 TV/3 Radio 49E, 30E and 10E were all close to locking according to CS so maybe there is room for improvement. I didn't look for 38E, 17E, 1W or 53W, nothing found on 14W, 43.1W or 50W. Weather today has been damp and heavily overcast. I'll be leaving this rigged up till tomorrow afternoon if there's anything else you want checked. [/QUOTE]
