Congratulations Sadoun on mag mention

[icstephen]

Congratulations on your mention in the T90 article in Satellite international this month.

 

[Mr Tony]

I saw that. That T90 dish looks pretty neat but the only drawback is you have to be at least 3 degrees apart when adding LNB's

 

[icstephen]

you know its funny, I never got one of those because I had read on here (long time ago) that they where only good for the DBS sats and that the KU sats where too weak...I may need to try one some time now that I read that article.

PS: did you see the interesting article on attenuating some signals to bring up quality on weak tp's? I wonder if this might help on G10r (ku).

 

[Sadoun]

Thanks icstephen

Yes, the T90 is big enough for regular KU band signal. The main reflector is about 43" wide by 38" high

There are 2 version...a T55 which is like a 20" dish and the T90 which is larger.

I noticed (like most dishes above 30") that its a bugger in shipping (around 100 bucks) for one of those.

Also, can you use regular DBS LNB's on there or do you need the special "reverse" ones?

You have to use the reverse ones since the signal is bouncing twice on the dish.

 

[Mr Tony]

but the KU ones are OK?
The mag mentions using Sadoun's .4 Standard LNB's

The T-90 will work fine with ordinary Ku LNBFs, it only needs the reversed ones for circular signals. Actually, I believe it would work with ordinary DBS LNBFs, but the transponders would scan in at the opposite polarity (which might not be that much of a problem anyway...)

good to know

unless you are using it for a Dish subscription

Didn't think of that... when I hear "Dish" I think "When is the next shuttle launch?" or "Used to be a good place for music..." (I'm not a soccer fan )
