Hello all!
Today I have made some tests to see if astra 2d is possible. 59.833N 8.5N
Gear: 85cm Triax dish with 2 lnb, intended for thor/sirius, focus is between the two lnbs so maybe -1db from a standard triax 85cm.
Lnb, Alps 0.7db
15m ktv 0.8 cable
Triax 63S
Weather: A little rain and cloudy
14.00-17.00
I could get most of the vertical channels but on 10773 H iget only max 2.5db and receiver not locking on channel.
No 10714 H
No problem with vertical except 10758 V
4.3db on 10788V
3.5db on ITV3
What do you think people, will a 120cm Gibertini be enough?
I ordered a 150cm but the dealer would not ship so now i have feed for that dish but the f/d is the same on a 120cm.

Well, you can buy the Gibertini from Germany like most people do.

www.satshop24.de is a good dealer to recommend one.

I have tried that with the 150cm but he said "es rechnet sich nicht" which with my skills in German would be that its not business for him or me (not sure) , actually he cancelled the order when I was in my net-bank paying for it. In sweden you can buy it from Hansa-electronic.com or .se 1350kr that is quite cheap including az/el mount.

The reception has improved now 1900 and i get ITV3 without problem! 4.3 db
Still having trouble with the most interesting 10.773 H, right now 2.5db average.
The triax dish has 38.8 dbi at 11.7 GHz and with the "nordic feed" maybe 1db less? It must be good strength on Astra 2d here as I see people in Oslo having trouble with 120 and must go up to 150cm.
