    just received my new dish orbital dish and black inrego LNB to replace cheap ebay 80cm :-) , motor is being kept because seems ok, when fitting the lnb , it has 2 inches at least of movement forward and backwards in holder! , should i start at furthest point ie LNB face closest to holder furthest point from dish or the other way? , objective is to get viasat on 4.8 ands the more difficult feeds and improve quality of signal generally? i am north liverpool if anyone has any experience! with these parts that seem to come recommended?

    Guessing thats a black inverto ultra mate ya?


    I install the same for myself Tuesday, have a look: http://linuxsat-support.com/sh…s-my-setup.html#post20471


    Held the lnb mid way on the holder...


    Get your angles right...


    And skew the lnb correctly to receive max signal!


    Like yourself I upgraded from a cheapo 80cm dish to a 1m in search of Viasat but sadly failed!


    It did how ever give me a massive increase on other satellites and can get nordic beams on 0.8 west without a problem..


    I am in the South of Ireland and you being in Liverpool should give you a big advantage over me for Viasat and i'd say you will pick it up alright...


    Take a look here for a few pointers:

    Enjoy mate, i hope you get it and let us know how you get on please!!...

    Right on an overcast evening (tonight) finally tweaked the dish and getting following from l23 Liverpool postcode:


    4.8e:


    Via sat Nordic beam 11747 agc 93% snr 61%
    Via sat hd 12456 agc 95% snr 57%


    0.8w


    Canal digital Nordic HD 10747 gr 93% snr 78%


    16e


    Tring / digit alb agr 91+ snr 75+


    None of these channels were registering signal on previous dish so inverto LNB + orbital dish seem to be v good!


    Footy season looking good here......



    Anyone got any comparisons????
