[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 879892, member: 325666"] @ Llew .. Did some comparison tests of the SL3 and the Norsat @19.2E .. Currently a lockable transponder at 18543 V The Norsat finds the transponder during a blind scan ..as does the SL3.. Norsat showing 10db ...the SL3 = 8db .. So both find the transponder on blindscan.. Both analyse and produce data ..but the Norsat is a little slower to Identify (Progam 1) in the stream even though it has a 2db advantage.. Now ..both display Decoder crash on the data screen...both locked.. Activating VLC ..both produce a black screen ..BUT waiting long enough the SL3 signal will clear to give a testcard . The signal from the Norsat NEVER does..?? make of this what you will.. Both lnbs are offset from the focus ..by between 3 and 5 degrees ... The SL3 being the greater offset.. Somehow the SL3 copes better even with a lower signal level.. Why I have no Idea ..unless there IS a circular component to these SiS newsfeeds. Another thing to consider is that the SL3 uses the SUP-2400 band shifter in Ka Lo .. Maybe this is relevant ? The Mystery continues.. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
