Thanks for the link,

The Gibertini 1.2 has a gain of 41.3db and the 1.2 andrews has a gain of 42db but the 1.5m gibertini has a gain of 43.3db which is not much more than than my andrews 1.2m my 1.8m prodelin has a gain of 45.5db and the 1.8m fortec star also had a again of 45.5db and pulls in nilesat horizontals fine so i do not think that the 1.5m gibertini would cut it here in walesi think the signal would still drop out still plus the gibertini 1.5 has no feedhorn option,

Not in some of you guys league but still good reception once again of all Verticals this summer.

Not of great value are the MBC's since last summer, since well they are now an easy catch over on 26e but ah well ops:
