I just got back from a walk around the neighborhood with the wife (KI4IWS). For some reason she led us off our usual path and took us down a street we usually don't walk on. I noticed a hunk of metal on the side of the road and when we got close I noted it was a DirectTV dish being thrown out. Upon further inspection it was one of those newer ones with the three LMBs on board.
Now to my 60cm dish... It is too small to support 1.2GHz because the 1.2GHz patch would block most of the dish and would prevent most of the signal from even entering the dish.
Back to my "new" dish... Being that it is an offset dish, is 1.2GHz possible with this dish? Anyone tried this?
