Advice Needed Do you know this VSAT product ?

[zorrin]

I plan to buy this VSAT BUC and the orthome but I can't find any information on the net.
I think it's a Ku version with a 76cm antenna.

Anyone have the reference?

Looks like the feed & arm from a Skyware Type 845 dish

Yes you found it ?
orthomode is special.
It seems to have an unusual skew setting.

I like the look of these dishes and recognised the feed. The whole dish needs to be skewed due to the non-flat design and matched feed. I'm not sure but I don't think there's anything unique about the orthomode.

I received other photos.
it seems to me that the adjustment of skew is possible on the antenna.
But it is at the orthomode level that it is settled in this case.

Yes I was wrong, the orthomode is not bolted to the feed but clamped, this allows the OMT to be skewed. The manual attached for the receive-only version shows the clamping setup. The dish can also be skewed.

I just received the "head" part today.
In fact the 2 rings allow the feed horn and the LNB to rotate in different positions.
The BUC remains fixed but the antenna can be tilted for skew as said by @ozumo
It looks like a Vsat Ku/Ku to me.
