Is the 1.5m dish prime focus?

I have tried the 2.4 dual reflector feed on a regular 1.8 Channel master offset in the past..... but the result was that it was not as good as a normal channel master feed ....

@jambon550192 for sure the feedhorn you've shown earlier will work on this dish. But take in account you will need special flanged LNB to attach this feedhorn. But, at the end of the day, it might happen that performance of your system will not improve.
You better start by placing the existing LNB in perfect position. Also, check whether the mirror is not warped.

Yes I may purchase it and dust off.my c120 invacom see what happens. I do get very bad weather in the winter . I lost all.my bein channels this week due to a very bad rain and hail storm on my 2.5. At this I was very surprised but I supose you can't stop It no matter how big the dish.
