[QUOTE="DonSE2, post: 1109308, member: 414325"] Going round in circles on this, not helped by the fact it seems extremely hard to even source most of the dishes i've come across. I didn't want to lose any signal on what i've currently got which is the TD110 as some feeds, FTA European Tour Golf for example is always marginal so I got it in my head that I couldn't go smaller. The Triax is 110x101 reflecting by my measurements, the Gibertini only 101x94. This is reflected in the specified gain figures 40.2 v 39.7. But perhaps i'm just reading too much into these figures and the accuracy of the alignment will more than offset it. I'm not comfortable going up to the 1.2s due to wind and it will really stick out on top of my house (maybe next year once the 1m has bedded in) I ordered a 1M Televes based on some old reports that it's size was very similar to that of the TD110 however it's only 94 x 104, they have a 1.1 model but not in grey (or stock) so would need painting. Another thread on here recently also saw an improvement going from a Televes 1.1 to a smaller Kathrein 90 plus there's a video on youtube of it bouncing around in the wind so i'm not sold on it and will likely return I think ideally i'd source a new TD110 and get it perfectly aligned but the chances of that seem unlikely so i'm thinking of giving the Gibertini a go and testing it myself in my garden (hours spending messing around with the Triax bracket has given me a good idea of how to roughly set up a motorised). Any thoughts? Seems some German retailers have stopped shipping to UK now but have found a couple that still might. Much difference between XP and SE series?
