    LKU1-2A (SONSET DIGITAL UNIVERSAL LNBF)

    ADVERTS
    I promised Rob from WS International to provide feedback and an evaluation regarding the SONSET LKU1-2A Universal LNBF that he provided me. The weather here in Nebraska, my health and my auto troubles and my work duties have put a damper on my time to experiment with my hobby. However, today, I have managed to free myself up and the weather is cooperating with me, so I will get started on my promised venture.



    I will have to do this in mutliple posts as I will be trying to display direct comparisons with scren images from my AZBox Premium.

    Since I have already begun some research with Hispasat 1C/1D @ 30.0°W in a previous thread, I will just continue from there. I think you will find the results surprising.

    My system consists of an Invacom QPH-031 LNBF, a DG-380 motor mounted on a 1.2 M GeoSAT Pro antenna. I have roughly 350 feet of cable (RG-11 outside and RG-6 inside) and one switch (Chieta 4X1 DiSEqC) which feeds one AZBox Premium receiver.

    Since the weather was cooperative with me today, I replaced the Invacom QPH-031 LNBF with the SONSET LKU1-2A LNBF and made the appropriate changes to my system menus to accomodate this.

    Follow along with me in the series of posts for comparison. Keep in mind that the only item that was changed was replacing the Invacon QPH-031 LNBF with the SONSET LKU1-2A LNBF.
