A quick question m8's how good is this dish?, and could i use a stab 120 motor with it?
Thanks.
ive got a 1.2m gibertini and i love it . i would only use a 36v system with mine as its large . the mounts are jumbo sized compared to a standard sized dish .
As mikie says better use a 36v motor especially if the dish is exposed to heavy winds.
Thank you 36v it is then.
I have mine in the garden on a TM2600 motor,you'll have to adapt the dish mount to fit disqec motor but mine works well.
mine works ok with stab 120 diseqc motor
The question is how many years a stab 120 lasts compared to a 36V actuator ! The actuator have to have special grease covering to stand against weather. Best to use WD 40 regularly or similar on the arm that comes out, and use Hammerite waxoil (clear) on other areas. This tip comes from David at SatSuperShop in UK. Great thanks to him for that! I have a 36V actuator that has lived for over 7years now, because I put heavy greas all over it to stop any water coming in ! Others without protection dies after a couple to 3 years from rust inside !
I have had mine on a MOTECK SG2100A for almost four years now and its still working fine
Just a quick up date got it fitted with a stab 120 it works like a dream a bit slow but hey who cares I am now getting 5, 16 and 26 east spot on the improvement from my 90cm is fantastic.
glad you got it all sorted and are happy with the results .
could i ask what lnb are you using ?
what lnb are you using m8?, i am in the process of saving for a 1.2 gibby and stab 120 and have be considering a invacom twin and gibby feedhorn to go with it as my new vu+ deserves a new quality dish. regards mdt
Titanium 0.1dB twin output 3rd edition universal 40mm m8's and vu+duo.
i use an ultra black on my 120 . it performs as good as a white tech single on a channel master feedhorn .
You can fit your Gibertini 1.2 on a Stab 120 but you have to fit ''Distance pieces'' to make do for the large size of the Dish Bracket. Stab Motors have these Pieces just right for the job, they are reffered to as DS-01 Brackets (if you Google ''Stab DS-01'' you will see them). You can also use other Brands of Brackets but you have to fiddle around with them sa as to fit them properly.

hi
just got myself a gibertini 1m dish and would like to know if the INVACOM SNF-031 'C120' 0.3dB Universal LNB is good to use with the dish...
You must have the Feed Horn for it. Mostly its for Prime focus Dishes in the region of 1.2m or more. For a 1m Dish you can you use the normal 40mm Lnb. Having said that, if you do have the Feed Horn, I don't see the reason why not.
get an ultra black 40mm lnb , you will not be disapointed with such a cheap lnb . its truly a great buy .
yes got the feed horn and lnb today for tomorow deliveryOriginally Posted by alfred_1
will see tomorow how realy good this items r as been sayd the gain is very good.
did you get the gibertini feedhorn ?
i would like to know your findings on the lnb as im thinking of getting an invacom c120 lnb .
Just want to give further Information on this thread....I have installed 4 Dishes on my roof... one is 1m - 2x1.2m and a 1.5 m Dish.....now I am using a 'Best' 0.1db LNB (name 'Best' is the Brand name - made in Germany) on the four Dishes and they are the optimum I could find especially (on the SKY UK) with the 1.2m and 1m Dish. better than the Inviacom 0.3db with a feed horn...this is my finding after prolonged experimenting with other LNBs. The black Inverto came very close as well as regards weak signals but not quite as the 'Best' 0.1db.
