Toroidal or Self-made Multifeed ?

[chikung313]

Good-morning to all users , when I started working with multifeed toroidal was not yet available so I tried to test various solutions on a 130 cm dish and eventually I fixed a 10 lnb set covering each sat from 28.2°E to 5°W that , from my location , (13°E - 46°N°) works fine . maybe the toroidal will do better but I enjoied the satisfaction of the self-contruction .

Congratulation for your multifeed self-construction dish,but my advise is for toroidal 'cause you can get more satellites without problems and the signal is much better for all satellites!Of course you must work harder for this kind of antenna{installing} but satisfaction is great.With my toroidal I have at hand 16 satellites with one touch of a button!

Thanks , as i stated my project started time ago , a friend of mine is going to buy a toroidal and asked me to set it for him so I will be able to make comparisons with mine ...
