[QUOTE="archive10, post: 948489"] I don't think the change of LNB will make that much a difference. As has been determined on this and other boards, the IBUQ is the de facto standard for receiving 2x in Scandinavia. If you get nothing at all, then you're probably not going to go from nothing to everything just swapping LNB. The only point where the Invacom might be better is resolving cross-polarisation, but this only applies to a few of the 2G transponders AFAIK. But it's worth trying - if you have one lying around. Three (probably silly) questions, as you seem to be fairly adept at tuning the dish: 1) did you get a CM feedhorn with the dish? 2) do you have a proper meter (showing BER or MER)? 3) did you squeeze the last drops of skew out of the LNB when trying the IBUQ?
