theres only really the inverto c120 or you could try and find a professional grade SMW or norsat second hand but there are very expensive. i know the general rule is with a large dish that a matched feedhorn is best but you could try a inverto black ultra if it will fit and if its no good its not a big loss as you can pick them up for around a tenner, regards mdt

Stick with the matched Precision feed, there is no chance an integral feed LNB is going to fit to the dish, much less work..

Post a picture or two of the front of your 2.2m dish, and then the forum can advise on suitability.

A couple of questions;

What exactly are you hoping to receive from Nilesat that you can't currently get? Have you tried without the camouflage net?

If it's a transponder from Nilesat 201, I think you'll struggle even with such a large dish. Other members will comment about the netting and if it will be a problem but when dealing with fringe reception the slightest obstruction can cause problems.

Incidentally I can pick up AD Sports with occasional drop outs on my 1M Gibertini, however I'm significantly further south than you.

what i want is improve signal i already tryed with out camouflage net is same signal that net is to hid the dish only

Only way for more signal is a bigger dish.

Have you tried other c120 lnbs invacom etc.

Also is the feed on the dish adjustable, try tweaking this.

Hi , i also have a primefocus dish (140) and recieve Nillesat in Holland near Amsterdam whit azbox premium + with invacom shf c 120 (old twin lnb) and wanna do the same. I found that the invacom quad lnb olso better is than the old one.

Maybe i have an option but not try yet. I wanna test STARGOLD FUJI Universal Prime Focus Twin LNB SG-920 but i also read it only working on thaicom global beam in some forum. Strange because the specs working from 10.7-12750.

If you google for it wanna try and replace the scalar ring for the fuji lnb.
