    yeah those F/H do say for prime focus dishes but they also say can be used with the invacom c120.

    I might get one next month just to try it and see what happens.

    It probably wont work well as its designed for lower F/D than your CM2.4.

    The scalar rings are adjustable with the Invacom feedhorn and I used one on my 2m dish with good results but cant see it working as well as your Dual Mode feed on the CM2.4

    Hm I have a 1.2m Gibby dish with a 0.6db MTI "BlueLine" LNB. It works quite well and I think I am getting pretty much the best signal. Tried a 0.3db Invacom last year and was quite disappointed with the results. Would it be worth trying a Gibby feedhorn + C120 LNB?

    Well, it will look better in any case

    m8 i have to say i am 95% certain you will see a improvement with the gibby feedhorn and a c120.

    I saw a improvement when i got the gibby feedhorn and invacom c120 on my 1.5 gibby dish and i tried about 5 different LNBF's.
    The only one which came near was the sharp, thats now on my 110cm dish.

    Yep, Stirling Scotland, its the same on my Fibo 1.2 with some vertical transponders only around 9.00pm. Not much to be done except get a bigger dish or wait for a more powerful satellite with the right footprint

    Have I missed something? We don't know where enes lives.

    As said, the wide beam barely reaches the UK and the middle east beam doesn't even reach Italy.
