I'm located about 300 miles northeast of Bangor Maine. My western arc for dish net is obscured by trees, so I have to use the eastern arc.
Can the Winegard DS 2076 30" dish be used for dish net LNBF's? I realize the DS 2077 is the proper one, but there is a big difference in the price. DS 2077 plus shipping is $189.23, while the DS 2076 plus shipping from another supplier is $88.05
 
It probably wont work with the 30" and a EA LNB assembly due to the focal spot being off. The arm is too long for the spacing required between 61.5/72/77. You might have to fabricate something with hose clamps and such to get the spacing right ;)
 
He's not in the states (300 miles NE of Bangor puts you in New Brunswick) so the footprint may drop off rapidly once you get in Canada ;)
what I really wanted to know is: can a DS 2076 antenna be compatible with a single dish net LNBF
