Hi -
It depends somewhat on what dish, type/ brand you are using ?
but in general .... i would agree with william-1 that The Inverto 0.2 Black Ultra works well :)

Just remember the best lnb in the world isnt going to compensate for a dish that is too small for the signals that you wish to watch.

OpenBox X5 on a 1 meter motorized dish.
And now a 10 foot "C" band dish.

Custom built PC

Deep in the Boonies in the central Sierra Nevada mountains of California.
The bigger the dish the better the signal.
The better (and shorter) the coax the more signal to the receiver.
And be sure to ground the system.
