How do you know if your lnbf illuminates your dish properly?If your into fringe reception it would be a disaster if just 1 cm at the edge of the dish shouldn't be illuminated,if you do an area calculation it would be a very big area not illuminated.
Finding matched feedhorns for consumer dishes is impossible except for the Channel Masters and the f/d of the dishes seems to vary.
For example the Triax dishes has an f/d of 0.6,the lnbf:s Sharp dot 4 and Invacom has an ideal f/d of 0.6 so I guess they would suite each other rather well (but you can't be shure they illuminate the dish good enough).
But for example my Gibertini (currently in my bedroom) has an f/d of 0.66 so what kind of lnbf or feedhorn with lnb should I choose for it to get an optimal result and be shure the whole dish gets illuminated?
Anyone else who has been thinking about this?!?
