Well I received the GI-209P today. Unfortunately the holder didn't fit on the rods. Needs some modification first. I did manage to fit the lnb to the home made holder that came with the dish. Result: Astra 2E Euro beams now come in at almost the same strength as on the Gibertini OP125. Managed...

Damn it's not easy setting up a 1.8m prime focus. After I dug down the foundation and got it all level I fastened the dish to the polar mount and started searching for satellites. I started by finding Eurobird 9 on 9 east. It seems like a good starting point as this satellite is very nearly due...

No gap. At least not more than You would expect when loosening the bolts. About a millimeter.

Well that didn't do much. In fact the signal got worse. I guess the dish is aligned more or less perfectly :-)

That's interesteing @st1 I'll look into it when i get home.

Ok. It looks like @RimaNTSS will send me a GI-209P. (Thanks a lot :) ) So I'm going to try with that one firstly. Thanks for all Your help. I'll be sure to report back with my progress. Here's my signal strength with the 125cm Gib at the moment (Below the red line the dB value is mostly a...

Hi @RimaNTSS If You could send me a set, that would be great. Send me Your payment details and I will send You an address. Thanks a lot :-) Claus

Hi @st1 Thank you for a very informative post :-) I tried the link for the Gi-209P You sent me, but they don't seem to ship to Denmark. I can't select a shipping method. I wonder if this...

I'm not sure yet. I'm more or less getting all the sellers spare parts, which includes the old original LNB's plus a never one which sits in a modified holder. I don't know which is best as I have never had a PF before. Exciting times to come :-)

Thanks @RimaNTSS Unfortunately the only place I can fit the PF is in my garden, and as the garden is north of my house I have to move the dish back so that the house is not in the way. But I will need at least 40m cable. 10906V is starting to come back now. Signal hits 4,2dB on and off...

Hi. Sorry for bringing up an older thread, but lately I have been toying around with a couple of bigger dishes to get the UK stuff on 28e and I have a couple of questions: What are your signal levels for 10906V at its weakest with the 180 and when did they (normally) disappear with the 125? I...
