    2 C Band LNB 2 degrees apart

    Does anyone knows if taping 2 c band LNBs together can do 2 degres apart??? I'm planning to get 103W and 105W doing some rework on the plates. This is on my SAM I 12 footer fixed, thanks

    tried it with my 8' unimesh, it gets 103 and 107 instead.
    on my 10' unimesh, i do get 40.5w and 43w with excellent results.

    Sounds interesting!
    Are you talking about lnbfs? BSC621; DMX741; ESX521; ESX522?

    Were the 2 LNBs taped side by side close enough? or you just placed the scalar plates together side y side?? The scalars need to be modify when taping both LNBs together. I have one LNB in the oposite way with the scalar plates side by side and it give me 97W (using 103W as main), so that will be 6 degrees. So I'm assuming that modifying 2 plates so 2 LNBs can be taped together side by side will give me close to the 2 degrees I need to get 105W.

    using bandstacked, can flip one upside down and then they are right next to each other.
    eagle aspen b1sat c-band stacked lnb.

    carlospr,
    i machined the slot to go just to the other lnb.
    I think ice made a mod that actually had the lnbs touching.
    here is a pic of the unimesh with it. this LNb came with nice beefy scalars that could take a beating.
    Nothing glamorous, just bolted it in and tried it. all attempts to add a scalar to the outer lnb, failed.
