I am getting a bit bored with feed hunting.I think that I will have a go at CBand with my 105 cm Dish.I know that it is a bit small.
One has to make do with what one has hasn't one.
I have in the past got a few CBand transponders with my 100cm Orbital Dish.
However I am getting a bit brain dead lately.I have forgotten most of what I have read about CBand setup.I have spent most of the day adapting the feed arm to take my CBand LNB.
There will be lots of adjusting to do.the bend on the LNB holder is the first attempt,no signal.
Not surprising as the longitude has moved from 1.5 West to 0.2 West.First job is to reset the longitude of the Dish.
Not a quick job,once the Dish is loosened on the pole the elevation will need to be reset too.It is going to be a bit nippy sat on the shed roof.
It could take a while.
