Yes there is doktor. UK planning permission rules allow two dishes, with the maximum size of 1m on or around the property.

Of course if you live somewhere remote or no-one can see the dishes its unlikely anything would be said but the local council can not only require you to remove a dish, but if you refuse they can come and remove it then send you the bill!!

Yes, what he said.

What the eye doesn't see, and what the neighbours don't complain about is another matter (qv Vipersan...............)

PS @ VS: I can't be bothered with bold and green any more. Back to normal!

Nice setup, I use a 3 meter dish with chaparral corotor II plus wideband feed for both c/ku, of course I am on the other side of the planet but it works great for me.

Back again in C band problemo!!

I noticed that some users are interested in my dielectric plate for da C band

I upload a schematic of it.I recommend to use aluminium foil from chocolate .This proved to perform very well among other Al foils...

Use only transparent plastic , the 1 mm thick one is the best in my tests.Everything between 0,5-1MM is good
The width of the alu stripes must be 3,5-4mm .Please respect the dimensions

The distance betwwen stripes is 5-6mm The big stripes(3 on the center) 10mm width are very important for the reception.

You can modify a little bit the dimensions and notice signal increases on certain channels ...Go further and put perpendiculary 1mm thick cooper wire spiral (4-5 little spirals) an the each side and you'll notice real frequency cuts and strong amplification one other freq.A lot of play with

how its placement in the LNB (depth) is in everything till the end of the dielectric flat with the bottom end of the LNB

Does this help?
