[OP Gibertini 100 XP Lnb Arm reduced in length by 23mm for test-2**]

At least the Inverto Black Ultra is in a more normal position & not fully forward in the Lnb holder,
So more tests later this week with various Lnb's recently bought .

At least the Inverto Black Ultra is in a more normal position & not fully forward in the Lnb holder,
Tests with Golden Media 201+ & Inverto PLL improved signals where there was none with the reduced length Lnb arm.
All 3 Lnb's performed very well some variations in readings are probably due to weather conditions.

[Last test with TM6902HD OP Gibertini 100 XP + Inverto PLL the SQ is lower but just as strong a signal & is a more realistic
scale than the SX88 series.]

202+ i have one and defeat all others

I were to buy a megasat twin 70db to compare with this one maybe i could test next week.

I need a twin lnb for a 110x120 motorized dish. I had always had the invacom TWH 031, always thought it was good for feeds with low signal. For those with strong signal, I guess all the lnb would do the job.

I can see some of you are quite happy with the Golden Media Universal Twin LNB 202+. How do they compare? It is actually much cheaper.

I have just changed over to the Inverto Premium PLL Lnb on my 100cm set as the TM5502HD has developed signal problems :(

So I have set up the OP Gibertini 100 XP with a TM5302HD,
I tried 3 Lnb's the best results came with the Inverto Premium PLL Lnb :thum:

Sadly the Inverto Black Ultra & Golden Media 201+ worked well on most feeds but Direct to Home transponders on 28.2°E,19.2°E & 13°E overloaded signals with the TM5302HD,

The Inverto Premium PLL Lnb with the OP Gibertini 100 XP & modified Lnb Arm copes much better with low feed signals & high DTH transmissions with the TM5302HD is a perfect match :thum:

Inverto LNBs tested at weak beams, such as 11767 V 15000 at 42e, several H/V transponders at 7w (MENA beam) and usual 10e/7e feeds in a clean part of the spectrum (where WDB get no interference due to tuner bug)

IDLB-SINL40-ULTRA-OPP
IDLP-SNL410-PREMU-OPN
IDLP-WDB400-E1040-OPN

There is no difference between the three in these tests. SNL410 can get 0.2db more than the other two on some feeds but that difference is negligible.

All 3 locked 11767 at 42e with 3db, 11175 at 46e with 6.9db, nilesat mostly 30-40%.
I think there is nothing special about ultra, except that it boosts 16db channels to 17db (in some positions, in others it reduces the quality) which is practically useless

No one can say with certainty which lnb is best for feeds as same type lnb from same batch can vary, 2 people with identical systems living 500 yards apart again different results. There are to many different things in play so the best advice is if finances allow it's trial and error until you find the one that gives the best/most consistent results for your own particular requirements at you're location and set up. Lastly always get the biggest and best quality dish you can.
