Hello, I’m new to the group. I recently got my 1m dish . I’m located in Virginia USA.
It wouldn’t surprise me that the LNB is junk. I have two and neither one is working for me. The signal doesn’t get over a 63%.
Is there a prefered LNB to use ? I was actually setting this up with a Ku band receiver to be sure I had optimal signal.
Thanks
Mike
hi
I’m not sure this is the case
Sometimes I have that problem, when the plate is higher than recommended, also amplifies noise, and , if the LNB noise does not filter well, this can damage or lower the performance of the LNB. (for tv and HD channels)
my tech say its a bad LNB
can you share a picture of the LNB? and the dish please 
im using this for outernet Amazon.com It works very well
I’ve also had good luck with the Avenger. The Laser from X2Sat is another I have used with success.
If you can find something at a junk yard, you may want to try a 60cm dish. Although not recommended by the dish pointing calculators, we’ve had several confirmations of a 60cm receiving G19 in the continental US and Canada (Ottawa).
I started with one of these LNB’s. The only comment I can add to this particular product and may be with many LNB’s is do not wrench tighten the cable. I ended up backing out the whole f-connector from the LNB breaking it from its soldering point. I would highly suggest hand tighten only.
Just to throw in my $.02, this is the LNBF I am using:
It’s a dual so I can connect TV Tuner to one and Lighthouse to the other. You could use just one of the outputs, or the same one comes in a single for a few dollars less. In any case, it’s on a repurposed DirecTV Slimline dish, about 55x81cm oval, and works great on G-19 for both television and Outernet. I’m in Arizona.
Thanks for all the input,
it was a crappy LNB that I tried.
