I have this thing lying around, in pieces and was looking at it today, thinking it might be a good suspect for a fixed dish project, been thinking about putting one on AMC1 ku since that one has the odd skew angle to it.
Anybody have one of these things that isn't destroyed like mine? I need the focal length, distance from lnb to dish-face. I still have the dish itself, and the d-tube with lnbfs attached to it, and some odd pieces of pipe left over from when I took it apart.
(it was given to me, and I dismantled it-using the mount and leveling mechanism on my motorized primestar-on-polar mount dish).
It looks big enough to work once I figure out a way to rig it to a mount of some kind, and fasten an lnb holder to it-at the right distance from the dish.
*If anybody doesn't know-these were KU/KA band dishes from directv, Has one big lnbf right in the front of the dish, that might be the ka lnb, and a couple of others kind of angled out to one side of that one. I don't think any of them would be usable for linear ku anyway.
