Thanks for the suggestion. BTW, sticking the horn out 1.5" actually made the signals decrease. I think the sweet spot is
around 1.25". I'll readjust it later on today sometime!
 
You moved your focal point by pushing the horn in closer to the dish. You need to move the whole feed further out by the same amount as you stuck it forward past the rings.
 
Prime - Understood, Thank You! Here are some pics that I took today. As you can see, I put a notch in the scalar ring so that it would fit over the rib that was in the horn. Another picture of the feed it's self. It was a busy weekend, I'll work on it some more tomorrow.
