Nice! Some of those QRP projects can be fun.

Nice project. I did that with the SD signal when it was on 103W, now I guess I should try that HD channel, the dish is still out there-just needs aiming. I like those small dish projects, people just don't know how much tv they are missing, if they just took one of those dishes and put a linear lnbf on it.

That's not surprising that it works on a 20-inch; Pentagon HD is on one of the strongest transponders I've ever seen.
