Out here in Cyprus,7w is no problem...But it clears transponders on 19e other LNB's dont even see...I can easily say it is THE best performing LNB i tried on this dish (and belive me i tried a few);)

It just sems strange that some members are having good results with the Inverto c/master feed and 1.2m dish. I dont have the c/master, but the :-worship1.2m Gregorian, and like my previous post I am getting Excellent results with the Inverto.

Its a shame iwol couldnt try one of ours to see if he`s a faulty LNBF.

Ask if you could exchange it m8, say its not working at all!;)

The Invertos are very different in performance from one sample to another.

I ordered 50pcs C120 Single LNBs in a lot from Inverto and tried all of them, and the result was very uneven.

The one i have now is the best of the lot i had.
