Salvaged TX/RX dish mod for RX only

[TRG]

I'm going to pick up a fiberglass dish from a defunct car rental location. It appears to be a Prodelin 1.2M with a NPRM. I'm not certain but I think this dish was used for credit card transactions. It has one of those large heat sink boxes on it so I'm assuming it has a transmitter. My question is this. Can I put a Dual Standard LNBF (Sadoun KUL2) on this type of dish? Would it be hard to install a standard 40mm LNBF clamp or conduit hanger? I'm guessing it's just a matter of finding out where the focal point is, right?

Thanks Guys.

It would probably be good if you posted a photo of the feedhorn/LNB setup, if it still has one. You might be able to use the RX part.

If there's a feedhorn, that could guide you where to put the Sadoun LNBF.

For an example, I did this on a 1.8m Prodelin. That LNBF is designed for a prime focus dish. But, it works fine. One designed for an offset would most likely perform even better.

We love creativity here. Feel free to experiment.

Is that dual-outputs on C-band? What kind is it?

Looks like one of those c/ku lnbf (BSC621 I think)

The extra port is to combine the C & ku into one cable run using the internal switch. I prefer separate runs (cables) for each, but some like to combine it into one cable
