Never going back to Sky TV. Ever!
My Satellite Setup
Humax HDR1100S Freesat Recorder. Octagon UHD satellite box with Gibertini 1m motorised dish. Triax TD78 for Freesat. Triax TD64 for Freesat to 3 rooms. 2 Panasonic Freeview+ HD recorders.
My Location
North-East England, UK
Today I was going through my box of LNB's to try and decide which one I should use instead of the GT-SAT on the kitchen dish (Freesat - Triax TD64). I have a choice of 2 (ALPS BSTE8 bullet shaped and a Smart Titanium 2nd edition). So begs the question, if it were you, which LNB? :)
 
i would chose that one which performs better :rolleyes:. As I understood, box with LNBs is yours.
 
Well, yes. But I am asking others which one would they choose :)
 
Ive got a couple of cheap cone type lnbs and I find them poor when water collects on the cone. Enough water collects on one of them to knock out a lot of channels on 19E...
 
Hmm. That's pretty bad AS. So would you say the Smart 2nd edition would be better?
 
I'd say the latter of the two ;)
 
Yup I would go for the proper lnb.

Your mileage may vary - we gat a lot of wet days here, but the cone lnb is fine when its dry.
 
That sounds good to me! Looks like I will be using the smart titanium 2nd edition. Now, if we could only get some good weather....;)
 
Smart titanium.

No contest!
 
Thanks Hexah! :)
 
smart tit, excellent lnbf,s been using them for years
 
Yes, I still use the quads on the strong sats, and black ultras on weak sats.
 
Never tried a Smart but Black Ultras are brilliant and outperformed anything I tried.
