Question for the experts: if a satellite is transmitting in RHCP, when that signal strikes the dish does the LNB "see" it as LHCP? So if I build a receiving circular polarization antenna that will be placed at the focal point facing the dish for a RHCP satellite signal it should be built as a LHCP? I know it sounds dumb, but am wondering. Thank you.
