My System: TM 69000 Combo (standard), Darkbox2007, Darkmotor, Fracarro 85cm with Lidl 0.6LNB :), Progdvb for 4:2:2
just doing some lnb research

i see the fracarro 0.5 lnb is a better shape for the lnb holder than the strong...so should be able to push in a bit more !

also lookingin into a smart titanium second edition!! but reading the post here
The results are in Andrew c120 feedhorn VS smart titanium lnb-f

post #8...i see the lidl is alledged to be better!! lol maybe ill just mod the lnb holder instead....although i really cant get my head around this noise factor.....when my 0.6 silvercrest (lidl) lnb is way better than the strong 0.2.......might just slacken everything off on the dish and realign with the lidl lnb.....

LIDL LNB =
SilverCrest Universal Single LNB, model IP 401. Suitable for standard offset satellite dish with 40mm holder.
Low band: 10.70-11.70 GHz
High band: 11.70-12.75 GHz
Noise factor: 0.6dB
Amplification: 55dB
