    Nice job Qwer :76:


    With KA Band, the size is not always the most important, the quality of the reflector is also an important factor.


    In your case, it's better than going on your roof to replace your lnbs from KU to Ka on your first Kathrein.


    Good dedicated antenna.

    Hallo stephan94,


    ja, das geht in dieser Höhe nur mit einem Kran.


    Das Intreresse anderer Beobachter war gering, da hier nicht besonders viel los ist. :83:


    Die 1.2m ging jedoch ohne Hilfsmittel zu installieren.


    Schöne Grüße
    qwer.

    Merry Christmas to all of you! :155:

    Today I wanted to start first Ku tests on this (not motorized yet and well known) 3,7m Fuba dish, but weather was extremly bad to do this and even the falliing big raindrops not cleaned the dish properly... :83:


    I don´t know (exactly) how far clear view will be possible to the east or west side? Let´s see soon...


    I´m of course very interested to scan some Ku satellites with this dishsize, like 7.0°W Nilesat 201 or 35.9°E Eutelsat 36B.


    A good DX year is about to begin 2016.


    Happy DX greetings to all!
