It is best to change the angle of the dish as well. The dish will be set/tilted to roughly 30deg +/- 5 or 10 depending on the prior use. You want horizontal for best terrestrial signals! To be more honest and clear, the 'dish' portion will be nearly up & down vertical, by that I don't mean like a 'bird bath' but more like the LNB/antenna will actually face down a bit. As is shown in this video, the dish or signal reflector is not bouncing the signals from ground stations to antenna, it's still bouncing signals from space to antenna!!!
I suspect a better arrangement would be to just fix a folded dipole to the LNB arm to be honest. As shown, Soldering all four legs together means two elements would act like stubs!

What a load of crap. Takes apart a genuinely powerful LNB and builds a really bad UHF antenna that will only receive local transmitters. For a few pennies you can buy a real UHF Yagi that will out-perform this thing. There is so much ignorance in this world and it all seems to appear on You Tube.

@@raymacdhomhnuill8018 That's possible, but it's still not 'the most powerful antenna'. There are small Yagis that will out-perform this available for a few dollars.
@@andyhowlett2231 I have seen yagis mounted with a dish as a reflector/ concentrator that have much more gain than just the yagi by itself. It functions much as a reflector mirror on a telescope.
Good design idea but, there is a flaw! Your Center red wire was grounded to the LNB body. You can see it at 2:25. Again at 2:31. You covered it up with the cap while it was still grounded to the body at 2:36. I was waiting for you to place some shrink tube over it, but you didn't? There's really no need to continue with all the different wires after that point. Again, it was a good idea design. But you have to keep the center wire & the ground (body) separate for it to be really effective, from start to finish all the way through !👍
Holy shit wtf is hard to understand if the exact steps are shown you tubes algorithm gives it the boot reason your supposed to have basic knowledge of a circuit before saying your opinion.
I have a tv in my bedroom that I had a hard time getting an antenna to work. I ended up taking a 8ft piece of coaxial cable, cut 1 end off. Stripped it back about 8 inches. Then hung the stripped end over the curtain rod. Works great and have used it for 2 years. As far as believing just about anything, keep your foolish comments to your self until you have tried it. Sure there are things on here that is click bait, but there are some things that do actually work. Don't be so narrow minded.
I highly tecommend using a small tubing cutter instead of a box knife to make the circular cut to remove coax outer jacket. Sure spares sliced fingers.

@@jjuanmarin First off UHF and VHF signals will not be picked by a LNB (Low Noise Block down-converter). In a C-band antenna setup, the transmission frequencies are typically 3.7-4.2 GHz. By using a local oscillator frequency of 5.150 GHz the IF will be 950-1,450 MHz which is, again, in the receiver's IF tuning range. UHF and VHF fall under Radio frequency spectrum while satellites fall under the microwave spectrum. As for the formula for dish focal point, you have various search engines you can use to give you that. How much of a dumb ass are you? I would say American kindergarten children are more intelligent than you. dumb ass. I installing C and Ku band TVRO (TV Reception Only) systems since 1989. Those were the dishes that tracked the arc. Since about the mid 1990s, TVRO systems went digital. Today if you want HD and 4K, the freqs for them are even higher. Again LNBs will not pick up radio frequencies, only microwave freqs.
the trick here is that the station broadcasting is likely a mile away and no obstructions. He is in a heavily populated area and that is where they tend to put the transmitters to reach the most people. I could get NYC stations in NJ with a tiny antenna because it was clear line of site and not far. Same thing is likely happening here. Those are High Channel UHF elements he just made.
True. I would have turned the antenna from + cross a bit more sideways like an X with each antenna element at a different length then tilt the dish down a bit.
@@thepubliceye it isn't a Sat anymore, he made it into an Over the Air antenna. This is no different than putting tinfoil on your rabbit ears. What he just made was a high frequency antenna coving the upper UHF range. ( that is what the shortest elements on an antenna are used for, the longest elements are for low VHF. ) If he is close to the broadcast antenna, even that little bit would work just fine. ( the same reason inside antennas work, you are relatively close to the broadcast antenna )
@@batsonelectronics There is NOTHING in a LNB that picks up radio frequencies which is what VHF and UHF (measured in KHz) fall under. LNBs were made to pick up microwave frequencies which are in the Ghz range. If you want to pick up Off-Air signals you would have better luck using a god damn wire coat hanger which would actually work to pick up VHF and UHF signals add a little aluminum foil for better reception. I have been doing this shit since 1989 and you ain't going to bullshit me. You do not even understand the physics behind transmitting and receiving radio frequency spectrum and microwave signal spectrum.
@@leeames9063 and yet you either didn't see the video or you like to try to correct people when it isn't deserved. that " lnb" is no longer one. he removed the guts and replaced it with 4 pieces of wire to receive the 400 to 600 ghz of uhf. the wires are too short to be of much good for vhf. on an outdoor antenna, the longest elements are for low vhf, the shortest are for vhf.
not nice at all.! try visiting one of the most beautiful countries in the world and actually take some time to know the people before making nasty comments like this. I detest bigots and uneducated people.
I would have tried to mod the LNB circuit to change the frequency of operation into line with the band you were interested in rather then just throw away the board.
Not really practical Dave, the components & stripline filters are designed to operate at 10GHz, & not really suitable for the 100MHz-1GHz he would likely need for terrestrial TV.. Would be akin to using a Microwave Oven for a BBQ!! 😏
I just want to know what the hell is that racket going on in the background at 7:14? Sounds like they're playing drums and killing a cat at the same time.
Why not modify the actual LNB too? Get rid of the filter & downconverter, and use the amplifier! You won't get much gain at VHF & UHF off those tiny Ku dishes! Parabolic dish gain is a function of dish size to wavelength, and you need > 8 wavelengths diameter to get good gain.
LOL ! What ? Actual LNB is designed for satellite signal , not for terrestrial UHF/VHF . His "LNB" is stripped of electronics and is nothing but an empty shell . Stop being d0mb and beleiving this scammer
I saw a video where a guy mounted an antenna on the arm the lnb was mounted on and connected coax that was removed from lnb. Does a dish behind a regular tv antenna actually have any benefit?
@@cherylkygirl7181 not sure about a dish but wire mesh behind a tv antenna will increase gain and it doesnt have to be 4 meters as the other commenter is saying. just watch danny hodges videos and you can see proof. ive built the antenna that danny shows on his channels and the mesh has to be around 4 inches from the antenna to get any gain.
@@dannyt1705 i think scammers screw you out of money so not sure how he would be scamming. his antenna would work for low gain but i doubt the dish is doing anything.
I don't know but I'm seeing commercial dishes for Freeview but the dishes are way smaller than this so this will have much higher gain. This is around Doncaster, UK.
No. Definitely no. It needs a decoder, amplifier and signal repeater, found in the electronic board that he took out of the unit, so he connected regular cable to a cable service box and deceived the masses. Try duplicating it and you'll see.
There is so much wrong with this concept that it almost hurts. Anytime someone on You Tube says: "Most", "Best", "Must Have", etc. etc. I get suspicious. LNB's must be cheap and plentiful where he lives and he doesn't have a wire coat hanger. First thing you need to know is that RECEIVING antennae do not have power. So his video title and premise are flawed from the start. You could get the same results or better from a wire coat hanger nailed to a broom stick....or a guitar string hung from a tree....or a cable hooked to a barbed wire fence. Just about anything metal will act as a receiving antenna with good or great results. The power is not in your antenna but rather in the transmitter at the TV station. There are only two things that will affect your reception with regard to power. 1. How much power the TV transmitter is putting out and 2. How far away it is from your location. If you are a great distance away, the height of your antenna may make a difference - the higher the better. But if you are within 25-50 miles you should be able to get good reception with a piece of chewing gum wrapper. In the USA, the LNB is owed by the satellite company and you are required to return it when you cancel your subscription to the service. So defacing it this way will cost you quite a bit of money. Major IMPORTANT note: Do not attempt to connect your antenna cable to the back of your set while it is powered on as he shows in this video. Unless you wish to trash your TV and go buy a new one right away.
old lnb's are cheap in the usa because they are hardly used anymore and you are not required to give them back you could purchase them at any electronics store 20 years ago. you wont "trash your tv" if you dont turn it off before hooking an antenna up, ive done it dozens of times on many tvs. not sure where you live but where i leave you wont be tuning in with gum wrappers and even with rabbit ears you may pull in 1 station and most of our stations are no more than 20 miles away. it use to be easy to get analog channels but digital tv is much harder to pull in.
thanks....was thinking the same thing but had to watch to see if there was something new he'd found. Such a disappointment to find that it's all a scam.
That is because they have to still transmit the off-air HD TV signal analog. Digital signals do not travel that far. That is why you either need a box to convert said signal back to its digital format for HD quality. However, almost all TVs today have that circuitry built in so no need for a box anymore.
I guess in a third world country this mess would work better than a potato. The quality and form of soldering along with the condition of the tools and parts says it all. You might also want to consider removing the word "Pro" from your channel name. Pro is usually reserved for people that know what they are doing!
The video should be titled "How to destroy a perfectly working LNB unit".🤣 Check at @1:21 . He didn't remove the solder from the connection on the bottom part, breaking the board... At @1:26 it's clearly visible how he snapped the board entirely and basically destroyed a working LNB... I bet he didn't watch television for quite some time after that...
@@Randrew What you just said was definitely implied...There's only one problem with your reasoning: he HAS an LNB unit, meaning, he MUST HAVE HAD a SAT-TV. DUH
@@FreedomAirguns Um, I have 3 DirecTV dishes (one from my roof when I bought my house, one I found stored in the attic of same and one I got from the junk pile at work) and a Dish Network unit. I've *never* had satellite TV.
Not if it is over-the-air from a transmitter tower. (It is broadcast by your local TV station, the same TV signals that have been transmitted for 50 years by the major networtks CBS, NBC, ABC, - in USA).. It is not cable or satellite or internet television. It is TERRESTRIAL television.)
Like pretty much everyone else here I'm calling b*llsh*t on this. Same type of person that connects a DC motor with a generator and says they're making unlimited power
You think think this is going to give better performance than a suitably designed Yagi for the frequency range of interest? Dream on. There's a damn good reason why he gave different antenna designs for different frequencies and directionality. Why bother trying to re-invent the wheel?
It utterly amazes me how on earth you can make a statement to say this is the most powerful antenna on earth for terrestrial tv. I'll tell you why it isnt : Firstly there was absolutely no design theory regarding the array of the elements,. also,. The board you removed dictates where the focal point is for the LNB antenna position inside the cavity, you placed the soldiered joint too far towards the cavity opening so the dish parabola is now too close to the LNB and incorrectly focused and totally out of tune. A piece of red wire is no substitute for screened coaxial cable. A small home made yagi would do a better job even if it had no elements on it. Waste of video time !
you are correct about focus of that dish. None the electronic would be used in a recycling project. Now place a microphone at the same point the LNB was point the dish at what you would like to hear like a bird feeder. next project Wifi extender get a wired usb extender like used for RVers place wifi extender at old LNB location now run usb to your laptop and point the dish at your Wifi source you will see a better signal.Note usb cable is limited to 15 feet without a powered usb hub. Next project cell phone signal do you only have one are two bars at your house again remove old LNB by cell phone extender for your car this will be passive point the dish at cell tower and enjoy more bars.

Sounds like you got the bang-bang family below you there.😁
Can your antenna be used freestanding, without a satellite dish?

PLUS If you paint the dish with enamel paint, it will reflect more channels

@@lucas_254 Not Mad, Just Factual.
The video should be titled "How to destroy a perfectly working LNB unit".🤣
Check at @1:21 . He didn't remove the solder from the connection on the bottom part, breaking the board... At @1:26 it's clearly visible how he snapped the board entirely and basically destroyed a working LNB...
I bet he didn't watch television for quite some time after that...
@@Randrew What you just said was definitely implied...There's only one problem with your reasoning: he HAS an LNB unit, meaning, he MUST HAVE HAD a SAT-TV.
DUH
@@FreedomAirguns Um, I have 3 DirecTV dishes (one from my roof when I bought my house, one I found stored in the attic of same and one I got from the junk pile at work) and a Dish Network unit. I've *never* had satellite TV.
I was more impressed at 3:18 as he tried to drill though the wire he just put in.
@10:22 why does that look like an "RCA" instead of "F" type ? Maybe for ease of connecting the coax for the video?
Look s like but not an RCA, is a DIN male antenna connector, most used in Europe.
ALMOST LIKE VOODOO!!!
What about earth cabal

Can see all DD FREE dish channel by this attena
No matter how powerful the antenna is, we still need a subscription right?
Not if it is over-the-air from a transmitter tower. (It is broadcast by your local TV station, the same TV signals that have been transmitted for 50 years by the major networtks CBS, NBC, ABC, - in USA).. It is not cable or satellite or internet television. It is TERRESTRIAL television.)
@@mainemail7358 , Oo ok. Thank you for telling.
a lot of haters at least he tried
Like pretty much everyone else here I'm calling b*llsh*t on this. Same type of person that connects a DC motor with a generator and says they're making unlimited power
Be carefully, this antenna is to powerful. A strong tv transmitter will burn a hole in the screen.
i knew this was bull shit u could probably get the same results with a antenna from the dollar store or Walmart if u mount it outside
the dish helps
on earth?. but we live on mars.
Does this work in india
Um...this is a troll video, right? Actually...he could probably pick up cellular phone frequencies with something like that.
Please talk and explain!
Ever hear of sharpies?
You think think this is going to give better performance than a suitably designed Yagi for the frequency range of interest?
Dream on.
There's a damn good reason why he gave different antenna designs for different frequencies and directionality. Why bother trying to re-invent the wheel?
It utterly amazes me how on earth you can make a statement to say this is the most powerful antenna on earth for terrestrial tv.
I'll tell you why it isnt : Firstly there was absolutely no design theory regarding the array of the elements,. also,. The board you removed dictates where the focal point is for the LNB antenna position inside the cavity, you placed the soldiered joint too far towards the cavity opening so the dish parabola is now too close to the LNB and incorrectly focused and totally out of tune. A piece of red wire is no substitute for screened coaxial cable. A small home made yagi would do a better job even if it had no elements on it. Waste of video time !
Thats right
But he got you all to watch so mission accomplished😂😂
@@FluffyButtFarms yes.....I'm chomping at the bit here to see what he comes up with next.... no doubt you'll be tuned in too !🤭
you are correct about focus of that dish. None the electronic would be used in a recycling project. Now place a microphone at the same point the LNB was point the dish at what you would like to hear like a bird feeder. next project Wifi extender get a wired usb extender like used for RVers place wifi extender at old LNB location now run usb to your laptop and point the dish at your Wifi source you will see a better signal.Note usb cable is limited to 15 feet without a powered usb hub. Next project cell phone signal do you only have one are two bars at your house again remove old LNB by cell phone extender for your car this will be passive point the dish at cell tower and enjoy more bars.
@@talk2kev played with that junk for years.dishes make desent bird baths,I had 3 on a pole and birds loved it.however,the big ones do have potental with microphone and am ,cb radio antennas. Talked world wide with a 6 footer and 400 watt amp.1/2 inch ant.Take the mile element out of a astec 2000 mike,run it through the 2000 amp,and you can hear a cat fart 2 miles away..
Is this antenna 📡 Will work ...or time wasting
if you think this is real you probably voted for Joe Biden
Why don’t you just buy a tv aerial it only costs £10 🙄 me being a tv engineer myself am watching this going why why why go threw all that
if you think this is real you probably voted for Joe Biden
mileage may drift 0, so sorry.

What is a LBN!?
"the most powerful antenna on earth ... for TV" in each video...
I made this today but added a1000pf flux capacitor...startling results! Sadly It was my very last flux capacitor that Mr Christmas left me at the end of last December. ...
Just get another one on ebay! 😁
