The other night I watch a video about this woman named jeri ellsworth turning a directv lnb into a body scanner on YouTube. I don't have a link but type in jeri ellsworth.

Interesting that you can turn some lnb's into (low power) transmitters.
Good info in her other videos also. Thanks for posting.

She was self taught on integrated circuits and loves HAM radio operators.

I just wonder if anybody from this forum tried to make a transmitter by re-building a LNBF, like Jeri did...
Not for jamming someone's reception, but, maybe, for doing some trials with reception off-axis, independently from real satellite signals.

I had experimented using the cavity and probes connected to a DVBS/S2 modulator for bench testing, but had SWR and polarity issues. Switched over to a Feedhorn intended for transmission.

Jeri worked for my company 10-12 years ago - very bright lady! She never finished High School.

I wish she would become a member of satguys that would be neat.

She may already be a member. (I'm not saying she is, I have no knowledge one way or the other).

Think if she were a member here Darlington would be her avatar...
