I just got the LNBF today, and waisted no time getting it hooked up to the 6 foot dish.
The ASC-421 was actually doing a great job, but the addition of KU would be nice.
I hooked up the unit and put the dish on PAS9 and had trouble getting a signal with the switch, so I hooked the Coolsat directly to the LNBF.
I did a manual scan on the sat and had great signal strength on a couple of transponders, and switched back to the channel list.
I started to go down the list, but noticed lots of channels missing. It turned out to be all the verticals. I quickly put back the ASC-421 to make sure it was not the Coolsat but no it was working fine. Well bummer the unit will not switch to the vertical transponders.
Just for testing I put the C-KU back on the dish and did some test on Real Madrid soccer on PAS9, that is always a tough channel only 66 strength on the Coolsat, but perfectly watchable.
The new LNBF would only do 60-63 so breakups and clicking sound. I spend a lot of time making sure the unit was positioned correctly, I could not get a steady signal.
So not a good report I am sorry to say, I will return the unit for a replacement, and hope maybe the fact it cannot change to the vertical transponders somehow is affecting the signal strength also
