Turn Mesh Dish to Solid

We have known the capability of "talennan" which is a tool modificated from a thick plastic usully used to cut vegetables and meat into pieces, functioning on tracking the circular signal from the satellite and usually pointed to Yamal 202 (brings many Russian Channels - mainly for adult one). Today, we gonna see how an alluminium foil helps us in gaining the signal quality of the reception which is usually weak from some satelites. Infact, this alluminium foil is able to strengthening the signal as the alluminium in common i.e. "to reflect" such signal on more focus.

Nowadays, alluminium is used to reflect the signal as on the mesh dish, and the ribs of the dish itself. Whereas the alluminium foil which will be used in our experiment here is only a kind of thin alluminium sheet (without a hole on) glued to the surface of the mesh we try to modificate. It's very wonderful. Based on our experiment at last Friday, we only glued the alluminium foil 1/3rd of the mesh on 6ft dish, and amazingly it could gain the signal quality by 10%.

The alluminium foil is about 7 m lenght and 30 cm width, glued on the mesh reflector using "super glue" (a glue for steel) and on the outside of the dish surface we used "lakban". It is suggested to use  orange "Lem Fox" to glue the alluminium foil because it can be sticked harder (our assumption - but not tried yet). The only thing we could not handle on was about the wind which blow this solid dish modification to pieces. Unti now we still cannot settle down on this problem, still have no idea. Besides, heavy rain can also break the alluminium foil too because of its sheet too thin and too easy to tear apart just by fingers.

The gaining of the signal quality by 10% is very funtastic and interesting, because its sheet is very thin and we never thought of this before. Indosiar signal before the modification process was just about 38%. We finished the experiment for about 1/3rd of the inner dish surface modificated. We try to see the result of our unfinished modificated dish. Surprisingly, it's up to 48% of the signal quality. Very very funtastic. Click on those pictures above for bigger and clear view.

If only we finished the work 100% cover the dish inner surface using this alluminium foil, the possibility to rise up the RCTI signal quality which is now still "No Signal" is there. Whereas at only 1/3rd of the modified dish, this RCTI quality signal has shown its sign of signal recepted which were only 0% to now 32% (eventhough it's still blank on the television monitor). Beside RCTI, the other signals have also shown progress. Anteve which were 0% too, now can be well recepted with its stabilize signal at 42%, meanwhile TVOne which were about 35% (picture breaks like teared VCD) became 40% (sound and picture quality normal).

What an incredible achievement for us, and from this experiment we just come to conclusion that the correlation between the two worlds i.e. the world of satellite tv and the world of cooking (by housewives) are very thight indeed. When the housewives are cooking "the kates", than the husbands "eat kates". (Joking Mode: ON).
