I was outside today playing with my corotor II with a norsat 8000 lnb(that's all it says) It does not specify temperature. It looks old.
my scalar is centered on the dish. I think it comes out to be 63 3/8" from the edge of the scalar to edge of the dish all the way around.
My focal length according to SAMI is 45 5/8" to 1/4" inside the feedhorn throat.
Simple enough..... Tape measure it and tighten the set screw and I'm done right?
OK.....I did it like that and My signal went down! My feedhorn works better closer in to the dish than specified.
Strange. I would think the formula should be pretty exact according to antenna specs.
Best signal is obtained at about 45 1/8" to 1/4" inside feedhorn.
