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.

Great Job
I've been absent from the forum for the past 7-10 days or so, working on a couple of projects..... and have come back to a bit of a surprise.
I hope your health is better now and continues to get better. You are in my thoughts.
This is a very comprehensive review and you've done a great job. I appreciate i :up :up
As always, hope you can put the LNBF to good use... Again, many thanks

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Season 2 order already in hand:
'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1
I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.
Stay out of my office. I rarely have shoes or socks on in the office. My office and business is at home thoughI don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.

Simple, charming. Entire premise is quite silly but Cary Grant carries it across the line in good fashion.
