MTI's are far better than the general peeps realise. Just took down a 0.3 which gave excellent service for couple of years. Can't fault the old beast at all.
Be interesting to see what sort of difference it makes to your setup. L.

Hi nano the lnb i have on my dish is a smart 0.1db,i dont think it goes down that far but i tested it against the titanium 0.2db and the invacom 0.3 and it just had the edge over the other two,i got it off e-bay i think it was about a tenner.

Just got the MTi installed and all the fringe satellites are back. I will check for Nilesat later on this evening when the signal is easier to pull in
![]() Definately an improvement on the old Morena twin lnb ![]() I'm not sure the problem was with the old lnbs electronics but more the shape of it. The MTi is sitting a good quarter of an inch further forward of where the old one was when max signal was acheived. The shape of the old lnb gave no in or out movement when installed on my dishes arm where as the MTi can be moved in or out over about half an inch allowing much finer tuning ![]() Just need to play about with it a bit now ![]() ![]() Nano
