[QUOTE="battenfan, post: 899469, member: 239108"] In a 40 mm plastic drain pipe, I mounted dx's 196216 , a green laser pointer with a gypsophila filter. I hoped some moist on the dish face and fog in the air would make it possible to see how much the rays are diverging but it seems I need some reflective material on the dish. It's funny as I move the feedarm up and down, the dots at the bottom of the dish stays roughly the same, the center dot moves just a tiny bit and the top ones moves a lot. I also have some red, both dot and line, laser modules to play with but the cheapest ones have bad focus. Green is very visible even in daylight. [ATTACH]68606[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]68607[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]68608[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]68609[/ATTACH] Brainstorming: Next project will be a diy 3D scanner and let the computer figure out where the lnb should be and where it should be pointing.
