[QUOTE="Bru4213, post: 22279, member: 175768"] As an update to a previous post in this thread. In the hills near Modena Italy at 44.3N 10.8E I have upgraded to a 125cm Fraccarro offset dish with my existing Alps BSTE8-601B LNB, Pace 2200 box (yes I know!) and about 8m of good quality cable no faceplates etc. My old dish was 1m same setup. My ITV and 960's reception was marginal and faded early evenings : no change Possibly worse (weather ? Urgania any comment?) BBC was no signal: no change! I spoke to installer about LNB skew of maybe -17° for our area but he insisted tha he lost some db doing this. I feel that he has just looked at the signal strength and not the quality and not specifically tweaked to 2D. Any advise? Thanks [/QUOTE]
