[QUOTE="william-1, post: 916994, member: 193781"] As the opening post was about Best receivers for Fringe Reception I will return tho the subject:- The TM-F3/5 has a very sensitive tuner & ideal for weak signals as has the DrHD F15, Pace 2600C1, Sky DRX 595 and DRX890 & Technomate 5402 M1/M2 & M3, But do not be misled by the higher than normal signal bar readings show more signal quality but in reality the tuners are no better than the TM6900/6902HD or SpiderboxHD9000 series, Software upgrades on all receivers & various new images for Linux does effect the tuner sensitivity & accuracy of the DiSEqC motor control it all depends of the knowledge of the person doing the upgrades as I have found some upgrades do stop the receiver performing as it was intended by the designer, Sharp satellite tuner's are known to be the best X403p 7306A or 7903A which is the best & what is in your satellite receiver ? A good Lnb also helps Inverto Black Ultra is one of best as you are probably using the largest dish you can 300 to 450cm, Also matching the LNB to the tuner will make a lot of difference when you are on the edge of a footprint, These critical points become more serious when Astra 2G joins the Astra fleet @ 28.2 east if you live on the very edge of these footprints, Current reception in Greece,Spain & Finland from Astra 2A & Eutelsat 28A will not be possible after the change over to just beams from 2E,2F & 2G.
