I have a 8.5 foot sami big dish (mesh) it's new. I was using the asc-421 c-band lnbf (13 degree). shortly after buying it the vertical output failed. It would only receive horizontal signals. I checked coax voltage and it was correct even under load.
I purchased an astrotel 20 degree c-band lnbf which came with a new scaler ring. I installed it, aligned focal point and focal depth. fine tuned skew.
on my fortec ultra a couple of my old signal quality levels are as follows as compared with the new signal quality levels with the astrotel.
G-10R (c-band) outdoor channel -4182H asc-421=83% astrotel=75-90%
amc-7 (c-band) alaska Mux - (can't remeber tp freq)H 49% solid no fluctuations.
The astrotel has a lot of fluctuation up and down on quality where as the asc-421 was rock solid for the most part.
Is this a difference in dro stability, noise temp, or my error?
Thanks trucker
