[QUOTE="Old Satellite, post: 21743, member: 175277"] I agree it is almost certian that the dish has supplied due to tolerances in production are nearly always to "wide". The best while offering 0.2 mm surface accuracy still at KU band can be improved if you have the time care and equipment. It is almost the same reason why all of my dishes have ADI feeds since I equally gained approx 1-3 db just be selecting the ADI feed. The old Chapperal feeds were very lossy at Ku band - I estimate on the 3.7 mtr as much as 2.7 db ! However it takes around three days of fine tuning to acheive the best from the ADI feed, Completely agree Universal LNB - work very well as long as we limit thier application for there intended purpose. The recievers with Polorotor control are not so many any more as they used to be great loss. One point of interest would be is that I recently managed to see the Analogue feed on G3 at 74 .0 west - normall footprint is the USA with some Atlantic coverage. Weak digital signals are some thing else ! looking forward to the photos Best regards Old Satellite [/QUOTE]
