Any lnb test reviews lately?

After fine tuning, testing on EBU feeds i get +3 to +4dB more.
I am testing in on low signals and feeds, so lower symbol rates than normal programs.

Gibertini 125cm (official) if i measure it it is more like 138cm (unofficial) + new ultra
Tested with BLSCAN2.exe and TeVii S662
OS:
Windows Server 2022 Datacenter

Looks good.

Where are you based? Any other sats you can test, 26e?

Slovenia, Maribor, near Pohorje hills.

Yes i can test other sats but at the moment i am trying to setup 0.8°W for Roger Waters.

0.8°W | Horizontal, Normal program, normal signal

OLD Ultra Black (Fine Tuned):

12168.693 Mhz, 30001 KS, DVB-S2/8PSK, 3/4, 14.0 dB

New Ultra (Fine Tuned):

All frequencies are same or max +2 dB better on 0.8°W ( program frequencies , not uplinks ).

can you make a comparison between Lnb according to the table I set up - so we can see exactly where we are.
 
Ozumo See how much the Ibu single outperforms the ibu Twin in the 10.7-11.2 Ghz range. Or compare the Ibu single in this range with ordinary Lnbs. You can use 19E-13E and tell me what result you will get.

Sorry for the delay... 7°E 11056H 4937, all DRO IBUs, oldest to newest:

Single 1: 10.0 to 10.3dB
Single 2: 10.0 to 10.3dB
Twin 1: 10.6 to 11.1dB
Twin 2: 10.3 to 10.6dB

Blue PLL was 10.3 to 10.6dB.
 
Guys, can anyone help with information on which shops still have the Golden Media 202+ in stock? It appears its becoming difficult to get these days.

Your best chance is probably eBay. I’ve not long sold one on there.
 
I recently installed the new Black Ultra lnb on my setup to replace my 8year old Black Ultra.
Now, to be fair I didn't notice any significant change, everything is quite the same, except on 36E where I now have 5 frequencies locked on the South African beam, while I had only 2 with the old black Ultra.
 
Do we know of any lnb which is a champion on horizontal signal? I intend to pull in some H signals on hispasat.
 
technomate golds are also decent
 
Here on the forum, we tested a large number of lnbs in real time and with a professional measuring instrument. Go through the topic, just turn on translate to understand what was written and look at the pictures. For each system or antenna on which a list and picture of the Lnb is added - This shows which lnb gives the best results for a certain satellite. I hope it will help you.

I have a quad golden media 204+ on my dish and compared to the IBU quad (the new and the old one) I get better results especially on feeds.
 
For satellite 28E, this is quite understandable. IBU has very bad results on this satellite.
 
8.0°W 11053 H 27500 beIN Sports...50%=====52%==========52%================52%============61%=====

Hi william-1 ,
So if I understand well, on 8w you get 50% with Inverto black ultra and 61% with Inverto PLL ? Both LNB are single model ?
 
These are not two different Lnbs, but both Inverto. I suggest that if you use a motorized system, you try the Diavla red. This lnb is very well found on the whole clark.
 
Thanks but I’m not using motorized system.
Got Lamimas 150 with IBU (new model) and trying to received 11013 H and 11054 H on 8W ( 12604 H on 8W ok 70% )
 
It's a shame for such an antenna to be fixed. The Ibu old model is a bit better than the new model. I recommend that you get the Ibu twin, but again I'm talking about the rotating system. But where is your location and what is the satellite coverage according to your home address.
 
No need to motorized the dish, already have another dish for Astra, HB, Thor with multi LNB ^_^
Just want to received 2 missing frequencies for Bein Mena on 8w with the 150 Laminas ( location near Marseille)

So if william-1 can confirm that he haves 10% more with the Inverto PLL, I’ll try it too

Yesterday test with Laminas 150 cm dish

- Inverto black ultra (new) 68% SQ
- Inverto Prenium PLL ( blue) 70% SQ

8w 12604H frequency, still not received 11013H and 11054H
