Triax offset dish with LNB.
Satellite dish My dish is a Triax TD78 offset dish; it is 70 cm wide and 78 cm high. It is monted on the wall of my house 2 m above ground. Gain is 37 dBi at 11.7 GHz, and the beam width is 2.6 degrees.
LNB The LNB is Maximum ST-11 single-port LNB. I bought it in a home improvement store ( Harald Nyborg ). The LO at 9.75 GHz is phase locked to a 25 MHz crystal oscillator inside the LNB. The frequency is reasonable stable after 30 minutes warm-up.
