Directors Cut :)
The first upload had 3 little "jumps" in the video and while there is no function to replace a video, I uploaded it again.

Hello and welcome back to my channel.
This video shows the "standard" modification of a MEGASAT Diabolo Twin Gold LNB v3 with NXP chip. While the LNB has a "butterfly oscillator" and needs for best performance a 0° + 180° Phase Signal, it is necessary (easiest mod) to use a balun. All about the balun you see and read in the video.
After the modification don´t forget to put new sealed to the LNB to keep it safe from negativ influences. I do this with high temperatur sealed from our Car store. Not the cheapest but it works perfect. If you need more info about that, write in the comments.
Thanks for following my channel + hit the bell do get notifications about new uploads. Have fun watching.

0:00 Einleitung
0:09 Removing original 25MHz XTAL
2:25 Desoldering connector for external reference input
5:17 The BALUN is made on ferrite toroid 4.1mm outer diameter by 2mm inner diameter.
5:46 Ferrite toroid material is 67 with a permeability of 40. Primary and secondary winding are turns each.
6:53 Soldering the BALUN' secondary wires in place of the XTAL
8:35 Soldering the BALUN' primary wires. One to ground, one goes to the reference input through a capacitor.
10:51 Soldering 1 uF SOV X7R SMD capacitor on the input pin of the F connector
11:45 Soldering the remaining free BALUN primary wire to input capacitor.
13:28 Insulating contacts with some adhesive tape strips.
14:08 The modification is done!
15:35 Don't forget to re-seal the LNB against atmospheric agents with silicone sealant.
