[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1064197, member: 178786"] [USER=243342]@Captain Jack[/USER] From my personal tests I have found that the polo pipe (AV-COMM) with a Titanium LNB yielded better signal levels that the same polo pipe with a Zinwell LNB. A good example was the ESPN transponder with frequency of 3980 L from 40.5W. With the polo pipe and the Zinwell I was under a lock, changing the LNB to the Titanium gave me a constant lock. The polo pipe as shipped from Australia did not have enough internal diameter to accept the Titanium LNB. The simplest option to get the Titanium to fit is to rub down the lip on the LNB throat with some emery tape. The other option os to machine out the internal diameter of the polo pipe at the LNB end by a fraction of a millimetre or so. If "scopus" pops along he will be able to provide his feedback on the Titanium vs Zinwell in the polo pipe. He went down a similar route. [/QUOTE]
