never been to one. always interested in new products/ideas. maybe someday i will finally attend one. been a ham since the 90s .

bravo anole! great picture. i guess that proves a picture IS worth a thousand words. thanks for clearing up the confusion.

sorry but our answers seems to have crossed in the time it took me to type the reply. the original lnb is installed in the center position in respect to the dish as is the replacement one. the two lnbs are made differently and this seems to account for the difference. the replacement lnb is...

i guess i still did not answer your question that i assume is about the dish 500 . yes if you remove the yoke the focal point will be affected and the arm will need to be made longer to compensate for the missing portion provided by the yoke . adding the equivalent length will restore the focal...

perhaps you are confusing the superdish with the dish 500. the dish 500 is the one with the plastic yoke. the superdish has the lnb assembly bolted directly to the arm and then surrounded with a protective/decorative plastic cover.

no difference. since the length of the arm is not changed the focal length remains the same .

altering a superdish by replacing the original lnb assembly with a single linear lnb is a matter of aesthetics and is a personal choice. it no longer has the bulky eyesore look of the superdish .it makes for an attractive clean installation that also performs very well. just dont discard the...

lnb assembly anole: here are the lnb assemblies i have. is this what you need?

superdish parts anole: check your private messages. i may be able to help you.

well. looks like i got out voted on my superdish modification. no problem-i just feel that experimentation is a key factor in this hobby. i had the proper substitute lnbs just lying around gathering dust and i felt that trying something new with them would not take much effort. i just didnt...

superdish -true fta use. the superdish can indeed be used for true fta. i have installed several of them for use on g10r. remove the original lnb and discard it. obtain a linear lnb shaped like a d#rect tv lnb -drill holes to mount new lnb on the end of the superdish arm. set the skew and aim...
