[QUOTE="Llew, post: 53235, member: 175007"] Hi Likvid The last time I used a polarizer was in the early 90's for my SMW LNB/Offset dish and Echostar SR50 receiver. In order to provide a decent amount of current to the (magnetic) polariser over a long cable run, I had to construct a separate bit of kit to boost the supply. Also, these polarisers introduced a dB loss. With Universal LNB's and offset dishes, the need for skew adjustment is not really an issue, although slight manual adjustment on weak signals can help. I seem to remember the corrotor was an electromechanical device that often seized up! Llew [/QUOTE]
