[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 859705, member: 243342"] Yes, CM is untouchable in terms of build quality. It will NEVER warp and a 20 year old dish will match performance of a new one. Have also used Gibertini 125 and the Fibo 120. The Fibo is the best performer due to Gregorian nature of the dish.. and the fact that it's slightly larger than a CM. It will give you slightly better signals over the CM but I have not compared either of them directly to the Gibertini. Gibertini has a threaded elevation adjustment and it's quite precise. It's also the only one of those listed that will work with a DisEqC motor in a *sheltered location*. Build quality: CM > Fibo > Gibertini Signal gain: Fibo > CM ? Gibertini 1m CM dishes are just as good as the 1.2m as it's the same fibre glass construction. Have installed the 1m Gibby and it was painless. I'd also recommend a Penta 85cm dish. It's square and fairly rigid due to the reinforcement bar on the back. Good performer too - people say better than a TD88. [/QUOTE]
