[QUOTE="thecaretaker, post: 602399, member: 292455"] Just an update. The new Inverto Black Ultra LNB arrived today and I have switched it for my Sharp. It really isn't a day for testing, it has been chucking it down all afternoon. Very heavy cloud cover. However, compared to the signals from the Sharp, it is slightly down. On 28.2E, those channels I was getting at 85% quality I'm getting 84%. On weaker signals the loss is even bigger maybe 4 or 5%. However, I had been complaining about the picture being a bit soft on upscaled SD on my TM6900. After watching the usual programmes at this time of day (local news etc) there is a definate improvement in sharpness. Even HD seems clearer. Unhappy with the reduction in signal quality drop, I put the Sharp back on. But instantly noticed how soft the picture was again, so put the Inverto back on. The characteristics of this LNB are different. A few channels I found I'm getting stronger, but others are weaker. One thing I found today was Euronews on 26E. I used to get 62% with the Sharp (last week). I was hardly getting it with the new Inverto. So moved the dish a tad manually and it came in at 62%. In fact, I've put 25.5E in the settings and it is back to 62% with the new LNB. When I switched back to the Sharp, I tested it again. I found it was still better on 25.5E. But all the other sats are spot on. I can't understand why this one satellite should look like it has drifted. Can the weather make it shift? Is the satellite at 26E dropping out the Sky or could it be the heavy cloud cover. Not experienced this before. Anyway, WHEN we get some better weather I will tweak it a bit and do a full test.:-worship [/QUOTE]
