[QUOTE="s-band, post: 1006606, member: 407744"] I've only recently put it back together and not tried it again. The last time I used it was in 1990s on a 3m mesh. It wasn't much different to a normal Chaparral C band servo model however, I never really trusted it on Ku. I didn't do comparisons between the same LNB & feeds on the same dish. The 3m Winegard was deep but well aligned. I think it gave a couple of dB extra on Ku compared to the IRTE 1.5m as opposed to the theoretical 6dB. I only ever used Ku on it to align the dish. I recenly checked the SMW DRO Ku LNB I used to use on the 3m and it is rubbish. The phase noise is awful but I can't be sure if it was always that way or has aged badly. Once the wind dies down, I may try it again on the 2.4 tin dish. [/QUOTE]
