[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1098416, member: 176704"] They are pretty useful and quite good, especially as the bar can be bent a little so that the outer LNBs are a little bit closer to the dish face - and facing more towards the centre of it - than similar rigid bars. OTOH there is a tendency for the LNB clamps to fracture between the two mounting bolt holes - but a cable tie around that area "fixes" the problem. PS: They are not specifically "Inverto" (nor are they often advertised as such) - any suitable 40mm diameter body LNB can be fitted. OTOH, would be difficult to fit a 40mm to 23mm reducer into those LNB clamps Edited: However, I did manage to fit one into the feedarm holder on one cheap 80cm dish, and then attach this sort of bar to the part of the reducer that extends back beyond that feedarm holder - thus a 23mm LNB (This [URL='https://www.amazon.co.uk/Inverto-Idlb-Sinl24-Multi-Opp-Single-LNB/dp/B00HLIW25K/ref=sr_1_3?crid=9O1EY9JHN41A&keywords=inverto+black+ultra&qid=1574452911&sprefix=inverto+%2Caps%2C156&sr=8-3']Inverto[/URL]) on the centre line and 40mm LNBs in the "outboard" clamps. That gets 46E on the centre-line LNB and 42E & 52E on the outboard board ones, i.e. 3x sats at 4 & 6 degree spacings. [/QUOTE]
