Info v "PM".

Well, the following pictures will be not about a home made dielectric plate, but it can`t be said that it`s a pro grade part that can be used out of the box, too. Peon`s 3.7m NWIEE antenna gets a new upgrade with a home made waveguide unit (machined by Peon) and a circular polarizer + OMT set by Gen...

I and Peon talk a lot and very often about new trends and technology in satellite business even it`s our hobby only. That`s not `cause we don`t wanna stay behind, but also we can learn a thing or two that will help us to improve the parts/reception we have now or we dream to reach at some point in t...

I guess, it is the right time to start this topic also on this forum as X band is slowly being discovered by more and more satellite enthusiasts across Europe. What I have to say is the fact, that this band ain`t easy to get mostly `cause the price of the hardware needed. Peon has access to the pro ...

Peon was there when it was necessary to confirm first reception in 18 or 22 GHz band and right polarity back in 2013 and it is a distinct honor for me to inform you, that he is also the first EU explorer of the last Ka frequency band 17.2 - 18.2 GHz using a pro grade LNB. The last missing piece, the...

Peon takes the bullet and decided to tests a few parts designed to improve interferences. Well, there are transmitters at 3.7 Ghz frequency, so it will be really tough! There is also an example how an ordinary antenna acts to ADE antenna if interference signals are present. The test of the hardware ...

There haven`t been any information from this band for a very long time so I`d like to spice it up a bit.

This is what is stored at Peon`s place for this band.

It is always better and easier to get the certain band with a dedicated LNB. There are filters in every LNB so one may be lucky to get a few MHz higher or lower to the usual band, but it will never be the full band as expected anyway. Those Chinese LNBs are not as good as SMW, Norsat or NJR that my ...

By the way this type of antenna is called Gregorian ADE to be more specific. ADE - A xially D isplaced E llipse. This is how it looks when the NWIEE 3.7m Gregorian ADM dish is completed and being tested at Peon`s place... Thanks goes to Peon for additionl information and pictures. We hope that the a...

Low SR test at 23E (12600-12660 MHz).

TBS 6522 wasn`t tested as it doesn`t support hw blindscan.
