L Band Helix holder for 60cm offset dishes
Print Profile(0)
Description
A rather chunky LNB holder replacement for all those foxtel 60cm offset dishes laying on the side of the road during rubbish chuck outs.
The hole is a fit for a dereksgc 3D printed L Band Helix. The LNB arm of these dishes prevents mounting of the helix at the focal of the dish. So the helix ends up to far in front and above the focal point because the reflector plate hits the LNB arm. The helix can now be positioned at the focal point as the reflector plate is behind the LNB arm. This method in not optimal as now the metal LNB arm is sitting in the field of the helix and probably screwing it up some other way. To stop the helix sliding out push some cable ties down between the holder and the walls of the helix.
