[QUOTE="archive10, post: 896734"] Is the problem the signal quality or the strength? The invacoms don't have a particularly strong output, you may find better results with Inverto Black Ultras or similar high-performance LNBs (see elsewhere on this site for comparisons). Don't necessarily need the separate feedhorn, the Echostar (manufactured by Prodelin) is a standard 0.6 F/D, and so should work well with universal LNBs. But not all agree, there's many opinions. Trial and error is way forward. Get an Inverto Black Ultra Single or other make, and try for yourself. They are luckily not that expensive. Only thing about echostar (I have one myself) is the LNB holder bracket seems designed for LNBs with a 30mm neck (no such thing). I tried the 40mm (standarD), and they seem to fit badly in the recess. My 23mm (next size down) are not held tightly at all. Not sure what the original feedhorn was, but it'd be interesting to find out. [/QUOTE]
