[QUOTE="Old Satellite, post: 130527, member: 175277"] The 72.0 west satellilte is with the 4.2 mrt dish the 2.0 mtr will not see any signal at all. The actual c band footprint is very very week, and it requires a very comprensive bandwidth modification- down to approx 3.0db ( the signal is Analogue not digital!. The motor mounts are indeed very big and very heavy they consist in parts of a 5.5 inch pole with a mount of mainly 15 mm plate support with a main support pin of 20 mm diameter that acts as the piviot for the inclined orbit tracking. Dispite this heavy constuction if the wind is very high -greater than 60 mph then KU band becomes quite difficult, as the dish beamwidth is very small. below this operationally it is fine and without problem Kind regards Oldsatellite [/QUOTE]
