sorry no pics. But I can I can give a big thrumbs up for improvment. Unfortuantly I only had time to take signal levels on 3 sats...and these were the results:-

85cm Transparent dish, 0.2db Smart titanium

28e Setanta Ireland SNR 93% AGC 90%
13e BBC World SNR 84% AGC 90%
1w BBC World SNR 87% AGC 92%

85cm Fracarra Penta 85, 0.2db Smart titanium

28e Setanta Ireland SNR 95% AGC 90%
13e BBC World SNR 89% AGC 90%
1w BBC World SNR 94% AGC 92%


These are good improvments. However I am dissapointed I could not check weaker transponders on weaker satellites, but i was pushed for time

Well done . You'll not regret it. I'm still very pleased with the results from mine. Who wants round anyway... I like being different! lol

just done a tiny bit tweaking and im over the moon, it actually looks smaller than my previous dish but much more effective. This must be one of the most value for money products on the sat scene.....is it too greedy to ask the Italians to make a 1m version?

I'm happy for your happiness

Last year, immediately after having installed and seen the 85cm improvements, I gave Fracarro a call and talked to the sales responsable for Northern Italy who told me that there will not be bigger sizes for Penta:mad::mad::mad:
