Hi!
I have searched the boards, but there does not seem to be a definitive answer for this.
What is best for fringe reception, a regular quad/diseqc setup, or quattro/multiswitch? I have heard that you are supposed to increase the dish size a little when using mulitswitches, but is there really any truth to this?
The diseqc switches I currently use has an insertion loss of typically 5db:

The Multiswitch I am looking at has a loss of 3 db:

In addition to this, the internal switch in the quad LNB is removed, so shouldn't it be even more loss reduction? Does anyone have experience with changing over from a "normal" setup to a multiswitch setup?
Regards
Tommy
