Re: LNB focal point?

Right here. Those channel things are called wave guides think of them as really good coax. Also remember this is an off set dish so you can't just aim it right at the other antenna you got to factor in that off set.

Thanks Tobicat, I'm getting the idea.

I'm glad you mentioned the offset of the dish. Can I picture it simply as a top section of the parabola?

I'm not sure if my setup will drop down enough. The top of the tower I'm aiming at is about 3.5 miles off, but probably at the same absolute altitude as my dish.

I may have to modify the mount to get it to adjust low enough.
