Oh, and b.t.w., these 18 inchers, work at around 18 GHz , some 11-13
times the frequencies you wish to operate at- nearest band to it is 22
GHz band, but doubtful you could retune it to work! Jim

LOSS one of those 18 inch (foot and 1/2) dishes would have at 432 !! Jim

Hi Group,

Can anyone tell me what gain I could expect on 70cm and 905MHz and higher
amateur bands using a 19 inch direct TV ant disk?

Is the LNA in the dish convertable to something close to any amateur
bands?
