    Larger dish for HD

    Yes the larger dish would work better, less rain fade, for 61.5 I would assume 61.5 is low in the sky for you which is why you notice the rain fade more on that sat than 110/119. Lower in the sky means signal from satellite has to go through more atmosphere to get to your dish so signal can...

    What is noise ratio of LNB's

    Noise figures can be misleading, and don't have much to do with the satellite signal itself, they are numbers related to the amplifier in the LNB. All amplifiers inject noise during amplification, audio, video or LNB amplifiers. For Ku LNBs the lower the number the less noise it would inject...

    Larger dish for HD

    You can use a SuperDish, these have more gain for 110/119 than a dish500. Rain fade happens before the signal gets to the dish, it has more to do with the frequency these sats use, 12.2-12.7ghz, than the dish size. You will get rain fade from these sats with a 10ft dish, if conditions are...
