    Any who used LNBF gone back to LNBs?

    The last dish I rescued had a Chaparral Corotor II on it, which I kept. Just wondering if anyone has gone from LNBFs to LNBs. If so what size wire did you use to power the servo motor? Did you see a better picture? More stable picture on the weak signals? I noticed on Ebay they sell C and KU...
