[QUOTE="ceedjay, post: 1011474, member: 410482"] Hi. I "found" a FIBO 120 cm in good condition and mounted it on my house to try to catch UK beam from Astra 2E/2F/2G. Unfortunately the transponders are to weak. I have tried with Invacom TWF-031, MTI AP8-TW and inverto Black C-120 versions mounted on the original feed horn. With the TWF-031 i can see the transponders on the promax spec but they sticking up just about 2 dB above the noise level. With the other LNBs i just see noise. The noise level is about 53 dBuV according to the instrument. The eurobeam on 2G is around 70 dBuV and on 2E 63 dBuV. Is this normal levels? 2010 i tried to receive Astra 2D with an old 120cm prime focus dish and a LNB that was made for offset and was able to receive all H transponders 24/7 and V transponders for about 8 hours a day. I really like the dish and my newfound hobby so instead of crying about ASTRA 2 i was thinking of getting a motor so i can get the most out of the dish. Where can i found one that fits? I have the original fixed mount according to [URL='http://www.satellite-calculations.com/Fibo/fibo.htm']Fibo Gregorian Dual Reflector Antenna Information[/URL] Regards Christian [/QUOTE]
