Thanks a lot guys. I guess I've understood the geometry of the dish pretty well now. To quickly skew the dish, I drilled slots in the dish only (refer pics). I was able to capture the central satellite (Insat4A 83E) and one other satellite (GSAT15). However, I wasn't able to capture ABS2 (the...

@a33 The satellites that I'm trying to capture are at 93.5E and 74.9E. That makes a satellite span of about 20 degrees. The satellites I'm trying to aim at are strong satellites. To calculate the location of the second lnb, I used my CAD model. However, since the lnb clamps have degrees of...

I made a CAD model, got it machined on a CNC router on foam. Then used it as a mold to build a fiberglass dish. Between the layers of fiberglass, I put a layer of aluminium foil (the one used for packing food, available at grocery stores). The dish is parabolic width wise and circular length...

The dish is made of fibreglass. There is some lack of rigidity. This makes the mounting of the lnb clamps inaccurate.

Hi everyone, I'm from India. I've built a torus for myself, just for fun. I got it machined to avoid any deviation from the required shape. I made lnb clamps similar to what RimaNTSS made. I'm looking for only two satellites, ABS2 and GSAT. I'm able to point the dish towards either of the...
