    BSC621 Ku S+Q improvement

    Makes perfect sense, I will give it a try. If this is the case, I can make the ring out of aluminum and this should solve this problem, right?

    BSC621 Ku S+Q improvement

    Here are some pics from my mod of the bsc621-2 with the 1/2" polycarbonate rings. I am using a 1.2m dish with flat scalar driven by a sg2100 motor, not in picture, powered by a pansat 2700 receiver. I am getting a signal quality of 55-60% on the c band side of most sats. 0% on ku side with or...

    BSC621 Ku S+Q improvement

    I read Stogies' post, looked at Nick's pics, and both are for prime focus dish. I am working with a 1.2m Channel Master. Is this even possibe with the BSC621-2 on such dish? I will keep testing until I find the answer. If someone has the answer I will take that, too. lol

    BSC621 Ku S+Q improvement

    I made some 1/2" polycarbonate rings on yesterday. They turn out okay. I, then made the modification to the the bsc621-2. So far no difference. The c band side still works, but the ku is still not working. I think I may be a little off on my focal point on the ku side. I will do some fine tuning...

    BSC621 Ku S+Q improvement

    Great idea.!!!!! Has anyone had success with this? I will try it this afternoon if the weather permits. I was thinking of using a custom routed ring out of 1/2"or 3/4" polycarbonate and sealing the edges with GE adhesvie silicone to protect from the elements. I hope it works.

    it really needs a scalar ring o my 4 foot dish

    I have a 4 footer with a bcs-621-2. I have tried it with scalar and without. I get better signal quality on C band with scalar, but the KU is the same with or without the scalar. :)
