[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 403723, member: 193607"] The feed which is provided with the Prodelin 1.8m offset has a square bore, no use at all with most c120 LNb's, which expect to see a circular bore. The ones I've come across have a plastic front cover and a rainshade like that fitted to a telescope. It is only of any use with an adapter and a SMW-type LNB. The adapter has an insertion loss so will reduce the signal. I've tried this feed and it is no good at all for the average user. Connecting it to a standard c120 lnb gives very poor results. The easiest way is to buy the Andrews / ChannelMaster feed which is a perfect match for both this dish and the ChannelMaster 1.8m. You're only ever able to use four of the holes to bolt the feed to the LNB. You'll get the best performance from the Invacom quad c120 LNB(not Quattro). I've never tested the Inverto but I believe these are good as well. [/QUOTE]
