Nice dish! Have you got the feed horn? or is it the 40mm lnb holder?

If you have the feed then you will need a C120 lnb, Inverto, Invacom are great.

If you have the 40mm lnb clamp then any Universal lnb will do. (Sharp titanium)

But I recommend you get a feed horn as it illuminates all your dish. They work very well together. It will perform much better

When I unplugged my Drake 800 I still have the Channel master feed horn polariser and an Echostar Digital/Analog Quatro LNB noise figure 0.8 dB. I also got hold of a Invacom SNF-0.31 LNB which I could fit the CM feed horn to.

Which would you recommend?

Thanks.

Get rid of the polariser, and just use the Invacom LNB with the feed.
