[QUOTE="archive10, post: 894895"] The theoretical gain of the CM120 does not directly translate to gain on reception. But it will be in-the-order-of. It's relative to background noise, shape of dish, feed-horn shape / effeciency of the LNB / cabling etc etc. So if you have almost-there reception, the CM120 will do the job. So, if what you have works, don't change anything. If you want to improve on rain-fade etc; get a CM120 dish face. The CM100 and CM120 has the same mount, so it's a swap. If I was in the UK, I'd offer you one I have, which is somewhat battered (and which I have no need for). Have some bent arms to go with it; but it would allow you to experiment. If you find a cheap one in the UK, get one, and just swap the dish with arms and all. You'll be happier... [/QUOTE]
