[QUOTE="Sleepingwiththefish, post: 1064434"] Hi [USER=412755]@mirrors[/USER] Depending on what you want to set up, you might find that an (offset) LNBF will give you enough signal for your PF dish setup. You will always lose signal doing something like that, but it may be worth it. I have a [URL='https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/astra-2e-western-europe-reports.159945/post-1058507']2.4m prime focus dish[/URL] with a Octagon Quad Optima mainly to get the UK beams from 28.2E and signal is [URL='https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/astra-2e-western-europe-reports.159945/page-25#lg=attachment120391&slide=0']good enough[/URL]. Even with heavy rain is [URL='https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/astra-2e-western-europe-reports.159945/page-26#lg=attachment120616&slide=0']not so bad[/URL] In my personal case to get a proper LNB 4 outputs + feedhorn is very difficult locally, and the ones I find cost more than I gave for that 2.4m used dish. I had modified the LNB mount to hold the LNB farther away from dish (+-1cm), this gave me almost 2dB gain. [/QUOTE]
