[QUOTE="Spiff, post: 930945, member: 404998"] [B]Good evening from Mullion Cove Cornwall : ) I have just installed a recently purchased Primesat 1.3m aluminium dish. I removed the 1.1m Triax steel dish and mounted the Primesat 1.3m on the same Technomate TM-2600 M2 motor, same receiver a Technomate TH-5402HD C1 +. Peak up horizontal vertical and all the LNB settings. The LNB is an Inverto Black Ultra twin output. All satellites in the arc have been logged with the station number and quality with the Triax . Comparisons show the Primesat to be several points down on all 27 satellites. The Triax readings were logged on lots of occasions on our Samsung 65 inch UHD TV. No amount of tweaking will bring the levels up to the smaller dish. Nilesat is even more iffy than with the Triax as it was borderline before. Anyone has similar problems ? One thing I noted was that the steel mounting bracket did not fit the back of the ally dish correctly. If I remember correctly there was a quarter inch or maybe larger gap which pulled to shape or the dish did on tightening up the bolts. The company did not except that their dish was at fault saying that they has tested both dishes ? I did not mention the bracket problem as I had forgotten about it at the time. I prefer the appearance of the Primsat dish as it has steady arms for the LNB, which is also simpler to change due to a bolted clamp rather than the Triax plastic clamp. Thank you for your time.
