[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 92258, member: 175144"] You need the depth of the dish , from rim down to the surface of the reflector at its deepest point to work out the exact f/d ratio and the proper focal point. Unless you get this figure, you will not get a performing dish. Other factors come in to it as well, how well the dish is made and how true the reflector surface is all round, moreso by a factor of three for Ku band, not much you can do if its off. You should not be thinking of using anything you already have for the new front end. [/QUOTE]
