Hello!


in,aprixmently,one month,i want,to set my 2,20m Tagra Fullsize Dish,to Eutelsat W4,to try,if it is posible to catch,the rusian beam,of eutelsat 4w

11727 L,is the strongest transponder off all
Signal,is here with 1,50m dish,no other transponders,can be reseived,now it would be very interesting,to hear some reports ,from other,european,regions,what,Eqitment,is needed,for good signal!

i have bought invacom circular lnb from usa

and,the invacom prescision feed,can anyone tell me,how much gain,i can win,with this incacom feed?

reports i heard from east germany 90 cm,there is enough to reseive,nearly everything!

the,strange,part,what i dont understand,on the lnb,itself,i see,a freqency range,beginning from 12.2 to 12.7 ghz

but,first transponder,is the strongest,that i can reseive 11727,could this means,that the usa,and rusian standarts,of cirular lnbs,difrent,from each other?

now,i am awaiting,your singal reports,i will reply,when my,antenna,is finaly installed!

If the LNBF you bought was the invacom QPH-031 then it covers 11.7-12.7 GHz linear polarisation but only 12.2-12.7GHz circular polarisation.

Inverto make an LNBF which covers 11.7-12.7 CP, model IDLP-40SCIRCL.

Hi!
thx,for,intresting information!
i have the incacom lnb...
so,i did not know the difrents,of the freqency range!
problem,i need flange version,and invacom ,is the only one,that ofer this!

,have also here,normal lnb,from Aspen Eagle Usa,but,i cant fix it on my,lnb holder!

,maybe 11,7 ghz will also work,it is the only fta channel here,on the lowest freqency,when signal is strong enough with 2,.20m ,i will see:)

Do you require flange lnb for an offset dish or a prime focus dish?

If it is for a prime focus, then you can get a Chaparral Ku feedhorn + dielectric plate + WR75 Ku LNB.

Hi Again!
what,exactly the technical difrents,between a corotor,and corotor?
only the posibility to fix a 2. lnb?
on chapparal site i read,Chaparral's Ku-Wideband Polarotor features a wide bandwidth for worldwide reception of linear polarized Ku-Band signals

are they also european versions avalible,that support v/h
other wise,i would only can use ,it for one satelite:)

A 'co-rotor' is for C/Ku band - usually Ku signal is lower than LNBF.
The 'polarotor' is for Ku only - Ku signal is equal or better than LNBF. If you remote the dielectric plate it does H/V only. With the dielectric plate inserted it does RHCP/LHCP and also H/V with small drop in signal in H/V. The wideband version is the European version 10.7-12.7GHz.

Try email Chaparral direct to order.

I found a seller - he advertises a feedhorn for PFA ($109) and also with C120 flange ($79).
