    Inside surface of Feedhorn - Shiny or dull?

    I'm not sure if there's a lip in the feed. "The feed may be optimised for a lower part of the band than the desired English ones" That's exactly why the installer insists I have to change the feed. He says back when this dish was sold the frequencies did not go that high, so we need a new feed...

    Inside surface of Feedhorn - Shiny or dull?

    Yes, Dish is aimed at 28.2. Yes, in Athens, Greece. No, I did not change it myself but the installer did with his meter. As you can see from previous post photos the dish is not in great condition. Do you think I could do something to improve? like some fresh paint? is there anything that could...

    He did adjust dish geometry but with the current feedhorn I don't think LNBs position closer/further from the dish can be done...the feedhorn has a guide that does not allow that. He used his meter to obtain max signal. Edit: I have attached photos showing the guide of the feedhorn.

    Initially, my dish had a huge rotator (General Motors) and to get better results, the installer adjusted it with a SAT-meter fixed on Astra 28.2. He tried a few channels before final fix. Edit: Rotor was removed as you can see from the photo

    Only because the professional installer adjusted it with his equipment. If he did not perform a good job I don't know.

    @RimaNTSS Thank you. About the 50 degree feedhorn, I don't know either. My installer told me about it and also gave me this website: Ku Band Feeds and Filters - ServSat Communications May I ask what feedhorn do you use on the same dish? Supposedly, my dish has been correctly aligned.

    Thanks for your reply Chnnel Hopper:) 6 years? I didn't now it was that long. LOL The installer proposed the following feedhorn models: 0800-1290 RX/TX 0800-513 RX ONLY I could not find the 2nd model though. Here are some photos I took a while ago. Thank you again.

    Hello forum, I've been following this thread for some time as I have the NSC 18-1 dish with the narrow feedhorn that came with. I was told by a professional installer that I need Prodelin Feed Horn Ku Band 50 Degrees. Not sure if this is the correct feedhorn for my dish, I would like to know...
