[QUOTE="a33, post: 957791, member: 332642"] [USER=239108]@battenfan[/USER]: Thanks for the link to the pdf. I've got something to read again! Hope it is not too difficult. Quick question though: I hope aiming point should still be somewhere around what we call g-spot in this forum? Or does this pdf give still another aiming point? [USER=319227]@davemurgtroyd[/USER]: Yes you're right I'm considering 2D in this topic. In fact I wrote in my first post here (and also later) that my concern is the horizontal plane of the multifeed bracket. I wrote: Of course in the vertical plane a multifeed bracket should mirror the Clarke Belt, and thus be curved. But what about the horizontal plane? So I am well aware that there should be a curve in the vertical plane, as you mention. In fact I think it is strange that many multifeed brackets don't have such a curve... My concern is that some multifeed brackets are curved towards the dish, and others are straight, perfectly perpendicular to the main axis of the dish. See photos, above. I now think the brackets curved towards the dish are not a good fit to the focal line/plane. I think maybe they are curved to make aiming of lnb's in a direction somewhere in the middle of the dish easier. I can think of no other reason for making a non-fitting bracket, but still think it's strange. Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
