Yet to be purchased, but will include Gilbertini 1.25 Antenna (fixed) with 3 or 4 LNB's Inverto or similar - This is where I need the advice. system will be in 65700 Haute Pyrenees SW France.
Pole mounted at ground level with clear field of sight a
- My Location
- 67500 Haute Pyrenees, France
About to set up a dish for UK Sky etc in South West France - 65700 Haute Pyrenees.
I'm fairly high spec on the AV side (65" Smart LED TV + Onkyo TX-NR5010 receiver) and want something to provide a good signal
.
I proposed a Gibertini 1.25M dish with twin Inverto Black Ultra LNB with possibly another Inverto Black Ultra for 19E, Fixed Pole mount at ground level, approx 50M run to the TV (suggested buried in conduit WF125 cable) probabley the spec may be overkill, but one off installation hopefully.
i've requested a quote / recommendation from a local installer
This is part of his reply:
Due to recent changes in the satellite for UK reception a 1.25m dish is probably a safe option although a 1 metre dish should be also be fine.
Which other language channels were you looking to receive? French, German, Spanish, Italian etc?
What I notice about the Gibertini dish is that the multihead does not allow for a LNB to be positioned in the central prime position where it would capture the best signal.
This would not be suitable for reliable reception of UK TV due to the recent changes.
and this is what he proposes:
Parts
Cable 0,90€/metre
Dual 1 metre dish inc. single LNB 145€
Twin LNB 0.1dB 57€
Unsubsidised SKY+HD Digibox 279€
Is there a technical reason not to use the Gibertini and would the prime focus prosed perform better?
bit of a newbie, simply having had a Sky dish in the UK
kind regards
