Re: [AFMUG] Dumb Rocket dish compatibility question
Im afraid it's just a dish we have in storage. Will probably be buying
new ones.

I doubt anywhere sells the feedhorn on it's own, but even if you have
to buy a whole new dish, it's usually easier to swap the feedhorn than
to drag a whole new dish up a tower.

I believe if you just change the feedhorns out, yes.

Re: [AFMUG] Dumb Rocket dish compatibility question
Yeah, if you change the feedhorn maybe. Does anyone sell the feedhorn by itself?

Might work for short distance if not designed for that frequency. Its math...look up Cassegrain Hyperbole to get idea of correlation or Just Ask Chuck .. Hey that can be a new segment.

Re: [AFMUG] Dumb Rocket dish compatibility question
I would have to look at that stays and what changes. Normally the subreflector is matched with the feed and both have to change.

Re: [AFMUG] Dumb Rocket dish compatibility question
The dish is the same, but it's a different feed horn. I don't think you
can order just the feedhorn.
