[QUOTE="nelson_b, post: 806420, member: 296628"] it is quite a big ask -- but you never know till you try ---- :) i use a modified invacom feed / with home made C120 on my alcoa and can pull in some turksat east beams -- with almost as much strength as the 1.8 channel master --- i used the Alcoa,s original k/u/ feed tube so had to cut out the centre ring from the invacom feed to fit it on -- but just how good it will be off centre i,m not sure -- when i first rebuilt the Alcoa i did a few tests with the above arrangement as an offset but did not log the results :( from memory i think the results were quite good though -- but in the end i decided to keep the Alcoa as K/U for now -- and build a combined setup on the Channel master --- i look forward to your experiment/results :) cheers nelson.b.
