Any idea why the Black Ultra is so hard to get hold of in the UK

I don't know.

They are very hard to find in the UK which I suspect adds to the LNB's mystique. It made me want one all the more. I bet they are selling in their millions to UK citizens via European suppliers. Clever bit of marketing that. lol

Yes, I have not seen them here much either, mmmmm think I might get one of those (the twin version) just to try. Will order tomorrow.

Robbo, just do a direct comparison with any other LNB based on C/N (how's your new Emitor by the way?). If you find another LNB that beats this I'd love to know.

I've not tried the twin so all my comments are based on the single. Inverto sell it as a fringe reception LNB... "This LNB is a high performance product featuring the lowest noise figure available to address the need for superior reception under the edges of the satellite footprint skirt." Etc, etc.

Here we also use a modified version of this LNB with an Invacom style feedhorn on prime focus dishes. Results are excellent. See attached photo.

Should work well with my Fracarro 85 then. Just wish I could find someone to help me align it.

Grax in Manchester were very helpful.

That's an interesting modification Huevos. I would be interested to know how you attach the feedhorn to the LNBF (you obviously have to remove the feedhorn part of the LNB I assume.)

Hello!
why Inverto, does amplifies the signal itself, more like other brands Lnbbrands?
, this boost the signal it self but also the groundnoise, I wonder why it makes smw vice versa?
they may be achieved by ensuring a better frequence stability?

what you think,is "better"?

I used the same method a few years ago to improve reception at higher frequencies, simply slip a piece of fine aluminium tube down the throat of a standard LNB to give it wide band capability.

The C120 flange is a nice touch though.

Llew, here that is an off the shelf item. Looks like a C120 feedhorn but it bonded somehow, some sort of glue, not bolted. And the white cap is specially made too by the look of it. I've attached a few more pictures so you can have a closer look.

Hello!
i bought 3 diffrent c 120 feedhorn,on Ebay

,the strange think 2 of the siver feed horn i bought,the winding looks difrent a little bit,also it is not the same then the gold version!
only the gold version is the orginal,the silver one for me,looks like an imitate,and i cant belive that the silver version of this c120 feedhorn comes from invacom!

also i dont find any datasheet about this,to find out,how much the gainwinning,with or without exactly will be ,does someonme made any test about it?

What makes you think it's snide?

***Turok*** · 15-10-2009

difucult to say,the material of the silver clone,has also diffrent material from the orginal gold version,i also see no scale to adjust on the silver version do you see any,many things in the auction houese are fakes,thate are maked very good in the meantime,you have to look very good,to find that out...

Can you post a photo to show what you mean?

***Turok*** · 15-10-2009

tomorow i must search all the parts hope that i find

**bite** · 15-10-2009

I have this Inverto Ultra LNB, and it works perfect for me on 28E. No problems at all. With some previous LNB's I had some problems with weaker transponders from 28E.

Ah, I see. Thanks. Looks quite neat. Would like to see a C120 version to use with my SMW feedhorn.
