Well, after failing to fit them to my 60cm Channel Master, I managed to fit them to my Lidl 80cm dish (last year's lot, not this year), and my avatar is a shadow of my early attempt at this, but I have finished properly, pics to follow, so I can safely say that the pictured LNB bracket (fitted upside down) fit the Lidl 80CM clamp perfectly (but for 2 brackets, a little hacksaw modification is needed), and you only need to remove the top half of the original LNB clamp in order to fit one....  I'm bored so I just thought I'd post this...

Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum. | Well that's cleared something up for me, I now know what the avatar is and that it isn't the Pendle hill Police Commissioner's Batman alert.

Anyways, it is heavier compared to the original Lidl LNB it had when I first got it, but unfortunately I don't have an endless bank balance to get myself a new, stronger, bigger dish ... yet...
