Long time no post.
With all the buzz surrounding the yet to be released C/L Quad LNBF, I took to replacing the Std ASC321 LNBF on my motorized setup this afternoon. Back in business on several sats. However, I could not help but think about whether I would be pulling in stronger signal quality if I swapped it out to replace it with an Invacom 0.3db LNBF, specifically the soon to be released model. After doing some reading, I began to wonder whether I need the latest and greatest, or whether I could get by with an already proven Invacom LNBF, the single, Universal LNBF.
To assist those who might respond to provide me some guidance, note that I am using both the ASC321 Std. LNBF, as well as a circular FSS LNBF, together with a 22khz switch. By alternating the 22khz switch ON for the ASC321 Std. with a 10750 frequency designation, and the 22khz switch OFF for the circular FSS LNBF, I am able to pick up signals from several satellites with the assistance of my SG2100 Motor and .75 Hotdish.
Here's the question, to keep my access to all of the birds that I view and listen to radio on, do I need to get the latest and greatest (well not yet out) LNBF from Invacom, or can I use Invacom's single Universal LNBF with the 22khz switch and the circular FSS LNBF?
Please advise as to if the Universal can be used with the 22khz switch, the motor and the circular FSS LNBF. Also, should I expect improved reception by swapping either of Invacom's 0.3db LNBFs for my ASC321 Std. LNBF that has a noise factor of 0.55db?

Yep, your motor will work perfectly, the quad will be an instant hit and will probably be the last LNB you'll buy.
I have no clue on the Pansat motor settings, someone else who owns one will be able to help you there, it'll be in the manual or under USALS in the menu though.
If you want the single universal Invacom you'll need to ditch the 22KHz switch and invest the $14 or so on a diseqc switch to alternate between the DBS LNB and the FSS Invacom.
You're welcome

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....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Yup, I agree, I'd rather be 2 or 3 till the last few weeks.They get cruel sometimes, very very cruel.
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.
