Any lnb test reviews lately?

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

So, summarising much of the thread, I would say that the single lnb that would seem to perform best at the moment (apart from the old IDLPs of the inverts) would be the Megasat Devil. Correct?
Not really, both of us have found the Fracarro LNBs to be better than the competition.

Do you have the test results somewhere, where did you make measurements with this lnb in real time? Where is it visible that this lnb is better than the rest of the competition? Which frequencies and satellites were covered in this test? Thank you very much for the information.

My Satellite Setup
Gibertini 125 aimed at 28e (Golden Media 202+), 19e (Inverto Black Ultra SIngle), Triax td110 aimed at 1w (Inverto Premium)

So now I've finished to test most of popular LNB, so here is my ranking:

1 - Megasat Diavolo
2 - Triax TSI100
3 - Triax TSID
4 - Dur-line +ultra
5 - Inverto Black ultra/Golden Media 201+
6 - Inverto PLL ( Too much fluctuations)

If someone know a better Lnb than Megasat Diavolo, I will test it too
These results are really interesting. As I wrote earlier in the thread I also tested a number of LNBs a while ago and unfortunately, I did not try the Megasat Diavolo or the Triax. I measured over five frequencies (10714H,10935V, 11126V, 10818V, 11305H) on 28E and showed the S/Q values in a table. In contrast to your list, I concluded that Golden Media 202+ (OK not exactly the same as yours) was better that the Dur-line Ultra +. I have now calculated a geomean of the S and Q values to give each LNB a point score :cool: and it looks like below. It would be interesting to try the Diavolo and compare to Golden Media and Durline. Is it this one? https://www.amazon.de/Megasat-Diavo...1731487706&sprefix=diavolo+lnb,aps,126&sr=8-3

BTW, did you order the Golden Media recently? It was difficult for me to get hold of one 202+, a vendor in German sent me a 202 (without the +) and I had to return it and get one from UK instead.

I think that every Lnb should be tested on the Vertical and Horizontal High and Low Band -recommended in the entire clark band - of course, who has a motorized system. Also test bad frequencies - for example at the limit of lock., for example at 8w, 7w, 26e, 42e, 52.5 e,54.9e 75e. The test cannot be based on one satellite with a pair of frequencies. But I would really like to see the results of the Fracarro Lnb compared to the others.On which Fracarro lnb model were the measurements made for me to order and test it? It would be good to make the measurements with a measuring instrument, not with STB receivers, because there are differences between the tuners and the value display itself already between the different Image.

I should test on more frequencies and get hold of the other top lnbs (Fracarro, Diavolo, X2) and test them against Golden Media and Durline. My meter tests five transponders in a loop, I could use two different loops to test ten transponders for each lnb.

Hi! I found my Golden media lnb on "leboncoin" French famous website.

Hard to find nowadays...

Here is the link where I buy my Diavolo lnb:
