Default Dielectric Plates For Sale

Dielectric plates are now available for sale from galaxy-marketing.com : Dielectric Plate

This dielectric plate will turn your C band linear LNBF into a circular LNBF to allow circular C band reception.

All ESX LNBFs, the ESX241, ESX741U, and the ESX741 all already come with a dielectric plate in the box when it's purchased.

Does your DMX241 come with the dielectric plate? Also, which C band satellites are circular?

Default Milk carton dielectric

I know you're talking c-band, but the application is the same. When I first set up my Primestar dish for KU, I wanted to lock on a good strong signal, and Dish was the strongest around. Unfortunately, they're circularly polarized. I cut a strip from a 1 gal. plastic milk jug and pulled off the cover of the lnbf. To my surprise, there were already grooves in the bore to accept the plate! It worked like a charm until I finally got a real circular lnbf to add to the dish.
