[QUOTE="guest poster, post: 431628, member: 262401"] Reassuring to know that MBC's tp is gettable up there and on an 88 triax at a respectable 57-60%.. MBC 1-4 etc... peak at 46% quality so far here with trees, an ariel/ chimney, part of a roof in line of 26e (and some newly added tin foil at the bottom of the dish (works but looks naff)... Palmedia to 74% BBCW (either) to 56% now ... Dubai 1 and Bahrain 55 & Eritria etc... peak at 52 degrees .. Kuwait 2 45 degrees? ..there is usually a .2 degree trim needed e/w between some of them. MBC2 is still the best free movie channel. ######################################## Anyone know how an LNB actually works? trying to modify a metal grundig (looks round but has almost vertcal (15 degree- 28e skew) oval rings in the horn) not 100% sure how it sees the dish area as these are vertical and its intended dish is oval horizontally, the focus point it wants and why the antenae is/are not one vertical and one horizontal but a short one and a long one (reflector?) and can be both veritcal or both horizontal dependending on manufacturers.. .... just ground one out to see the rounder dish and gained 10-15% and it's still a mile out including going outside the dish area but still in focus so its seeing unwanted noise.
