In the end I picked up this one, a 0.1 db single LNB for slightly over 12 €, this includes shipping!!!! It was from a dealer who has a few more of these, and for this price I thought what the hell lets try it out. By the time I drive half an hour to the stores it will cost me that in fuel.
When it arrived, it was indeed new, had an additional F connector and protecting sleeve included. What can I say, I plugged it in and it works. Hard to tell if it much better than the old one, but it is for sure cheaper. Hurray to Ebay and cheap sat components!!!!
Ah well, to think I have just paid a bomb for Andrews feedhorn with Inverto LNB.
