My Satellite Setup
No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

An array of antennas that could be used to receive satellite signals in a flat panel package? Erm.....

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

That was slot array, no discrete components except at the back of the unit. Not so difficult to make either since the satellites were single polarity only. Still expensive though (and easily damaged)

My Satellite Setup
90cm motorised dishes(98x90)+fixed+multiLNB+24Unicable.
Currently 56 satellites, 61°West to 57°East.

Octagon SF8008 4K Twin, VU+Duo², VU+Ultimo4K.
Recycled as the owner.

North of Madrid (28703 Spain) -3Km of IKEA (40.545847, -3.612012).:-)
The planar antennas have the two polarities, 1LNB models up to 4 LNB's universal and for some months, and also to powerful satellites spaced 6 degrees (Astra and Hot Bird 19ºE to 13ºE, etc.).
Equivalent to a 40cm antenna 33'7dB i +/-. :-doh
Measures 527x520x112mm.
You now have average antenna for satellite and half to the other.

Flat antenna SELFSAT H50M

Observed on the surface the inclination to tune these 2 satellites to 6'2 degrees of separation.

Las antenas planas tienen las 2 polaridades, modelos de 1LNB hasta 4 LNB's universales y desde hace unos meses, tambien para satelites potentes y separados 6 grados (Astra a 19ºE y Hot Bird a 13ºE, etc.).
Equivale a una antena de 40cm33'7dBi +/-.:-doh
Medidas 527x520x112mm.
Ahora tienes media antena para un satelite y la otra mitad para el otro.
