If you can give me the dimensions of the body of the adapter (ridges etc) and how it fits into the horn, we should be able to put one together to fit the Fibo horn. | ||

Try here _http://www.internet-sat-shop.de/shop/product_info.php?cPath=22_33&products_id=1767 All you need to do is cut off the feedhorn and you have a c120 adapter. I did it myself and it works perfectly. Hope it helps. Bob | ||

My System: skystar2 pci skystar usb + porty lidl camping dish maybe one day i'll have a dreambox 500s... | Sure, Try here: _http://satmueller.de/ costs 18€ plus 10€ shipping inside Germany ![]() _http://www.seh1.de/angebote.asp _http://www.fernseh-panzer.de/ 18€ and shipping inside Germany is cheaper than Satmueller, you should give them a try. They usually reply pretty fast. ![]() I also have a contact in France and Snuffer has adapters in Holland. These are all original fibo C120 adapters, otherwise you can go Dorsetbob's way and butcher something that will fit. On the same shop that Bob has shown there's a 90° angle adapter but it's outrageously expensive: _http://www.internet-sat-shop.de/shop/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=&products_id=176 5 Regards, kamaleon | ||

TECHNOMATE 5500 CIP PLUS Receiver, STRONG 4375(as Backup) | Looking at the box it came in and the instructions there is no mention of the f/d ratio.Not that I needed it as the feedhorn on the Fibo is in a fixed position. It is supposed to be for a CAS5585F feed adapter and from what i can see you need a 25mm clamp. Can you swap with asc? I don't know. There is not much information available about them. Perhaps Falconsat would know,that's were I bought it. I can scan the instructions if you need them. Just ask me. Bob | ||

It's certainly a lot cheaper. | |||
