[QUOTE="Lexzie, post: 902173, member: 344918"] According to your feedhorn (C-120) I guess you have a prime-focus dish. Therefore you cannot simply change the feedhorn/LNB with LNBF's intended for use on a offset dish. So using the Inverto Black Ultra is not going to make things better. The [URL='http://invacom.net/snf031.html']Invacom SNF-031[/URL] is allready a very good LNB and I guess the [URL='http://www.inverto.tv/products/product.php?section=1&id=256&cat=8']Inverto IDLB-SINF01-OOPRO-OPP[/URL] too. A friend of mine uses a Euro vision prime focus LNB, which has a gain of 70 dB, although I don't think that it is really going to make significant changes for you. I can't find a manufacturer, but here is where he bought it: [url]http://www.satview.be/satview.be/index.php?item=euro-vision-universal-prime-focus-lnb&action=article&aid=556&lang=NL#.UlkNyM7n4jw[/url] I guess you allready know that size matters, so if you really want more signal: Get a bigger dish. There a different satellites, each with different beams on that position. Furthermore the modulation used (QPSK vs 8PSK) or the less FEC they use, the more signal strength you have to have to get a lock. F.e. 11938V, 12207V (I guess the 12907 is a typo...) and 12284V are on Nilesat 102 on the vertical beam with DVB-S QPSK. SR 27500 FEC 3/4. It is known that the Horizontal transponders are much weaker in Northern Europe, so I think you can forget about receiving them. 11900V, 12054V, 12130V are also on Nilesat 102 but because they use a FEC of 5/6 they are harder to receive. 11158V is transmitting via Eutelsat 8 West C, the Ku beam of that bird is aimed at the Middle East:[IMG]http://www.eutelsat.com/files/contributed/satellites/coverage/downlink/E8WC_Ku-band_Downlink_Coverage.jpg[/IMG] Furthermore, the satellites are not exactly on the same position: Nilesat 102 and 201 are app. on 7.0W and the Eutelsat 7 West A and Eutelsat 8 West C are app. on 7.3W. So to get the maximum signal you have to re-align between these satellites. How bigger the dish how more you will notice a difference. For NRT, NRT 2, Rêga, Waar TV, Waar Sport, Ishtar TV, Nalia FM and Waar Radio you could better try Eutelsat 3B at 3.2E. For Kurdistan TV try Express AM22 at 53E. For Payam TV try Eutelsat 21B at 21.5E Some MBC channels are on Eutelsat 21B too, but you need a special receiver (f.e. the [URL='http://www.technomate.com/products/TM%252d5402-HD-M3.html']Technomate TM-5402 HD M3[/URL] and maybe others from Technomate?) or a [URL='http://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs5925-dvb-s2-tv-tuner-usb.html']TBS5925[/URL] or [URL='http://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs6925-dvb-s2-tv-tuner-pcie-card.html']TBS6925[/URL] PC tuner. Badr is also difficult, I only know Badr 4 is receivalble in The Netherlands, so going further north is not going to make things better I'm afraid. There is [URL='http://nl.kingofsat.net/beams.php?s=95&b=132']a reception report [/URL]with 120cm around Norrköping. [/QUOTE]
