KATHREIN and ORBITRON @qwer

Hallo stephan,

genau hingeschaut! Ich erziele damit bessere Ergebnisse.

Fiinally, three on one place.

Last one is for Ka band on 19.2°E.

My Ka-Band Antenna "tree"...

... because I like them - one more, fix on 04.8°E (only sporadic feeds right now).

First test with Ka-band Multifeed on 1.2m: 0.65°W, 4.8°E (focus) and 9.0°E

Todays 3.7m antenna pics (from KA-Band tests on 25.5°E).

Maximal clear view: 60.0°E to 40.5°W.

Finaly today my former "garden dish" (Kathrein CAS 120) is now on the right place on the top, driving by Jaeger HQ SMR 1224.

My small camping set, pointing to 19.2 E.

Enjoying nice holidays at France south - western Ocean side...

Hi guys,

just to let you know, I´ll be "out" in C-band for some time.

I will change my feed, fixing a new (not motorized) one next...

Test mode on (soon, I hope).

Enjoy the forum!

With best regards
qwer.

... I see that you have the Kathrein CAS 120.
But Kathrein has also the CAS 124.(prof. version)
Witch satellite has a better quality build the CAS 120 or the CAS 124?

Hi fox_81,

my CAS 124 has a big demaged reflector and I uninstalled the antenna again (quickly). So I cannot give an answer to your question, sorry, but in my opinion, the CAS 120 performs very good in Ka- and Ku band. The CAS 124 is much more solid (higher quality mount).

Best regards

My new old toy "arrived" today... KATHREIN CAS 018

Planned for X- or Ka-band.

Finally I installed the new polarmount AZ/EL (created by user pekaku on DXtv) for my KATHREIN (see pic above).

Big thanks to pekaku!

Waiting for better weather...

...and on his place.

Hi marval450,

thanks and yes, it´s the Ivacom feed for Ku band, I know - not perfect for Ka band...

A first try on 25.5°E shows no locks on 1,8m.

Thank you Kypros_Pambou and yes, I wash my dishes yearly...

Okay, I will try it next time. Thanks marval450!
