What do you guys think is the best LNB-F i am going to test some LNB-F against Andrew feedhorn & invacom c120 on andrew 1.0m and 1.2m dishes,

Let me know

Of the main two I have ; Inverto silvertech, and Smart titanium 2nd edition (both twins) the inverto is better.

Are you wanting suggestions for devices to test? or do you already have a list and you just want to see if we can guess the results.

sharp white case 0.3db i have heard is good but didn't find it did too well on the triax dish i tried it on

also try invacom lnbf, inverto, edision, smart titanium, mti

are you going to be using a sat meter on a weak tp to test them with the db signal reading ? as on one forum someone did a test of lnbs with what receiver signal level reading was best but that isn't a proper test

I want to do a test on Andew 1.0m and 1.2m and prodelin 1.8m dishes and see what is the best i have loads of c120 lnbs and feed horns here but it has been a few years since i brought any lnb-fs so i want to test them all

Any news on this front? Have a spare CM 1.2m dish without lnb and feedhorn and am interested to know do I really have to use a feedhorn or will an ordinary LNB do the job for 7W?

All views welcome.

has anyone tested best lnbs as i've heard they are what the darkgold lnb is just rebadged

I had one on my 1.5m gibertini before i changed it to a channel master feed.

It did performe well.

Quite cheap too, as long as you dont buy from DMan

what part of the uk are you as no lnb will get 7 % west h t/p if your in the wrong part , most find they need a big dish only way , 1,8 and up to 4 meters . some parts of london so say can get it with a 1. 2 but no many , as for the darkgold good as any feed horn on my test ,
