HI ALL! While having a look around Ebay on Tuesday I came across this little find. Totally unused and boxed, I don't know much about this particular single output LNB, though I am told it was used by Spanish installers for ex-pats who wanted UK telly via satellite. Can anyone shed some light on this LNB and how good they are. For £4.95 delivered I took a chance.

Quite an old LNB - had a few of those MTI "Blueline" LNBs some years ago (one or two still lying around) as they were quite good for their time, but I doubt they're much/any better than most modern ones in a similar price range.

Also, whilst the collar is quite long (thus allowing decent "fore-aft" adjustment)., the body is quite wide, and so it's more difficult to use them in a fixed-dish + multi-LNB setup because the bodies are likely to physically interfere with each other.

Outline spec from a dealer catalogue here

Edited: Then remembered this stuff in my "archives" - don't think these are quite the same, but may help!
