With the excellent help of my good bud lexmark we managed to get this beast up today. There are still hours of tinkering involved before I can say that it's spot on but we did manage to scan in several tp on Galaxy 17 at 91w.
Nice Costa!
Nicely done!!
After countless hours with my good bud lexmark we got the dish finely tuned. 2 defective lnbf had us puzzled for a couple of days. I'm just waiting for my new lnbf to show up before I start saving my sat positions in positioner memory. My arc is from 15-123w.
Update on the 8' solid, 27 sat positions stored with another 10 tougher ones scattered across the arc coming later. I'm still waiting on my new lnbf before I attempt to stabalise my feed. I'm going to also slap my prime focus ku lnb on as well to see if it improves signal quality.
I finally had some time yesterday to play around with my new dish. My good bud lexmark drilled a couple of more holes in a scalar ring and I slapped on my invacom twh-031 twin universal ku lnb to see if I could improve things on ku band, already using my bud for c band. I managed to max it out and all ku sats on my arc scan in with high signal quality. When I get a chance, I'm going to compare the results of this dish to my previous 6' solid.

I haven't gone as far to document my reults with the new 8' Fortec solid but I eventually will do so. From the numbers that I saw yesyerday evening I would have to say about a 20-25% increase across the board.Quote:

Extra fine tuning this weekend will have it complete and should be doing most of the arc at 99% signal quality. Since I had minimal success with universal lnb I'll stick to the invacom twh-031 or the dms jsc322-2.
