[QUOTE="BLUEPLATINUM, post: 883601, member: 176530"] Further to my report above I have now set up a second system to receive this TP. The equipment is identical, except that the original installation used a Gibertini offset dish and the new one is using a Televes (120 cm). The location is about 5 Km inland from the original one which is by the coast. I am extremely disappointed with the results on the new installation. There is no signal in the morning and early afternoon with things improving gradually after that, with perfect reception late afternoon and throughout the evening (but only about 58% quality). The dish is second hand and I suppose it is possible it has suffered some distortion. If not, I guess the Televes dish is just more poorly manufactured than the Gibertini. Additionally, I have taped a second LNB onto the main one. This is pulling in Hispasat at 97% quality, so at least I can watch BBC World News. [/QUOTE]
