They are made but I dont think the sponsor here sells them.

Please explain to me (in physics) why the LNBF for an offset dish is electrically not compatible with a prime focus dish. I believe that the poster only needs an adapter plate to properly place the LNBF at the focal point and physically adjust the phase angle.
For whatever it's worth, I have a 1m prime focus dish that came with an lnbf holder that would support this poster's requirement.
It's also noteworthy that I'm using a dish designed for Ku-band with an S-band LNBF. All that had to be done is change the lengths of the support legs to correctly position the lnbf at the focal point.
