[QUOTE="satseeker1, post: 877815, member: 283688"] I know well the Company in La Zenia referred to,they have been installing satellite systems on the southern Costa Blanca and Murcia areas for the past 14 years,most of the installers have been with them for at least 10 years,each installation team has a Promax TV explorer and strict instructions to what levels they should achieve at different times of the day and in particular areas.They fit Famaval 1245 x 1348 offset dishes with Inverto Black Ultras,in the local adverts they actually quote both the width and height dimensions. I asked Angela the office manageress why they always referred these dishes as 1.37 and she said they have always referred to these as 1.37 for the last 14 years and the CRM system for invoicing has these as stock items as 1.37,maybe somewhere along the line they changed the size,who knows ! I asked her about the tape measure lady and she said a women came in and said her plumber had told her the dish they installed was 1.30,she said they measured one and said it was 1.35,she also said the women never mentioned any channel breakup.She also said for installs in Murcia they recommend a prime focus Famaval which measures 1450 x 1450,on her CRM it is invoiced as a 1.40 and the installers always refer to them as a 1.4 for prime focus and a 1.37 for offset She mentioned that in the last month they installed more than 500 x 1.37 dishes and have run out of stock,the next 200 she gets tomorrow have also all been presold,she said with this level of activity the odd one may have been rushed but if she gets a resulting service call then she makes the installer responsible do it first thing in the morning before they start. I honestly do not think an offset dish that measures exactly 1370mm on the face is available. Incidently a Gibertini 125L that has the same specs as a Famaval 1.37,size,dBs etc performs just as well as 1450 x 1450 Famaval PF,so either Famaval are overstating their performance or Gibertini are understating,some thing is not right ! This to me is more important as misinformation rather than quibbling about a couple of centimetres :) [/QUOTE]
