[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1016774, member: 178786"] CJ, Yes, the antenna will be for C band. However, I will setup the arc on Ku band then switch over the feed arrangement to C band. I might have a quick peek at the Ku performance on a few signals that are borderline in the UK to see how it fares. I will check the thickness of the fishing line I used, it was a lot thinner than 0.75mm so it probably slid out of tension due to the tape not getting enough grip on it. I was going to repeat the test with half a brick suspended at each end to keep the line taught. However, its a bit of a faff about and my two tests so far have yielded the same resut of no gap.
