[QUOTE="Llew, post: 920260, member: 175007"] Finally got the SL3-01 working after the mishap removing the casting from the PCB. The casting having been warped, I reckon it wasn't seating correctly on the ground plane of the PCB when I screwed it on, causing uncontrolled oscillation (leaking somewhere maybe). I had to make sure all screws were as tight as possible - not easy with my old, worn Torx hand tool. I had to use its bit in the powered drill, even then it was slipping out occasionally. Must get a decent tool. Placed the LNB on the Triax, but too dark to set up correctly; however it's bringing in Newsnet OK at 9 dB. My thanks to scopus for providing a replacement PCB :) [/QUOTE]
