[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 858445, member: 325666"] Ok ..good news .. This morning it was raining (not often I can say that) ..and TPA at 7E was unlockable with the combo at 3.3db.. So removed the assy ..and popped off the plastic cap which in itself only gained about 0.8db..as expected. Then tried an idea that came to me whilst dropping off to sleep last night .. Lined the inside of the choke cone with ally tape ..thus countering the effects of Tuning to a large degree .. Popped the assy back on the gibby ..again with no cap ...and even in the rain TPA was instantly lockable at 5.5 db So swung back to 16E ..and Golfe which was unlockable last night .. Instant lock at 7.9 db.. Nice.. Yes I'll have to fit a cap ..as the feed is more inclined to funnel rain into the lnb ..but hey ...thats some improvement.. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
