[Moon] 3cm dish illumination

[DW Harms (Dick) PA2DW]

Hi friends

 

I got an overwhelming amount of good advices!

The best solution, which  was suggested by quite a few, is to illuminate the
dish with a high gain hornfeed. It has a narrow beam of itself so it will
just illuminate a part of the dish.

I will mount it in the dish focal point but with an offset, so that the 23cm
and 3cm system can stay mounted..

I happen to have such feedhorn available, so will try this out very soon!

 

Thanks again to all who reflected!
