how to skew and position an eagle aspen B1sat stack
ADVERTS 1
hi guys,just got my eagle aspen sat stack and wanted to know the best way to get it up and running.I have a six foot dish and have been trying to get a signal on my true south but to no avail.I have aimed ku dishes for some time so i think the 741u is dead.So if you can get me up on this eagle aspen which has no markings for skew or f/d i will appreciate it...thanks for your time

You can always pop the cover and mark with a sharpie where the probes are, a good time to make sure they are at 90 degrees to the bore on the waveguide.

As for F/D, that's something I played with until I maxed out the quality. On my 6 footer, the B1SAT feedhorn throat is about 1/3" from being flush with the scalar. I did not notice a great difference in quality as I moved the LNBF closer and farther from the dish.
