Ok martin, I really don't understand how that feedhorns works with two lnb's (C band & Ku), I admit I'm not a pro in this matter, far away from that... but will search about it... my main concern is about the performance, because I like feed hunting too. Compared to an installation with single...

I'm thinking try this with 2/3 lnb's max, 2 (1xC 1xKu) or 3 (2xC 1xKu), do you think this will be a problem because the shadows on the reflector? sorry what do you mean with "gimble of sorts...." are you talking about hinges? (on image circled green) thanks

Thanks Rima will think how to adjust feedarms to place lnb changer there!! Sorry Channel Hopper don't understand your point.. my dish it's not a cassegrain.. the motor will be placed at the very bottom of the dish, where starts the lower feedarm, like in image... I think it's the best solution...

Thanks Rima I get it , I was a little confused about the position of the arms that secures the lnb's, but I think your design will work in PF and offset dishes. The lower feedarm its better if it is not rounded tube? I have two different feedarms, all rounded..

My design is really poor, that's why you think I'm over complicate Rima, otherwise you understand what I try to say is very similar to your image... the change in relation to your image are the position of the arms that hold the lnbs... I try do a better design latter my bad English doesn't...

thanks Rima, my idea is a lnb changer with 3 lnb's max, 2x C 1x KU. I made a poor design to have an idea... maybe you guys can tell me your opinion if I go for that I have to alter the feedarms to don't block the lnb front i think in that design the motor should be installed in bottom of the dish

sorry Rima but this sounds a bit confusing to me... my dish is a PF 2.4, so about the shadow effect I'll not have problem, that's your reasoning right?? That it's really nice martin, but it's already hard for me to copy the ideas in this topic, even worse if I try to copy the design on that...

Hi everyone, what a nice topic, amazing skills here:-applause Just a question, this lnb changer will work on a prime focus dish?

i dont need twin LNB, just need to watch on my pc card, so C1-PLL should be enough for me, unless the C2-PLL performance it's better? thanks

Thanks Rima, I start today installing my 1,80m PF. Have to purchase the LNB to C band yet, but I'm a little doubtful, what the big difference between de tittanium C2-PLL Wideband C-band LNBF Dual (2) Outputs 3.4 - 4.2GHz and C1-PLL Wideband C-band LNBF, only that C2-PLL can watch two different...

here some pics of my toys: new one, 1,80 PF , excellent condition, pay about 100€ with polarmount support pole and 24 actuator

Hi guys, only a question of a beginner in the C Band: to change polarity from linear to circular, the only option is do it manually, right? Inserting the dielectric piece? thanks

RimaNTSS will post some pics from my 2,30m dish later :) after some reading, most of members reports goods results with titanium LNB's, can someone suggest one of then? regards

Thanks all for answers, really help me to take a decision, will buy C band LNB only, and will mount a 1,80 FP dish i buy a few days to Ku band. My point was to take advantage of higher gain in my 2.30 dish in the two bands, but if i'll loss signal in Ku band, better install another dish for Ku...

Hi guys, i'm new in forum, just discovery it yesterday, and read some topics, great stuff here, congrats to all members. I'm from Portugal and i love feed hunting with my 2,30m FP dish in Ku band only, at this moment i'm thinking in give a try to C-band, and that's why i create this topic, is...
