Comments from a newbie to FTA

Even with said LNB, isn't a receiver capable of
tuning lower symbol rates and more precise frequencies still required?
Yes. It is a combination of a capable receiver and frequency stable LNB. The AFC process for most tuners is quite adequate, but the minimum SR handling is the limiting factor. A PLL LNB teamed with an external TXCO reference source will provide the best stable signal for decoding.

Unfortunately, aging Invacoms have proven to be quite thermal frequency unstable.

Locked a low SR on the Amiko on 87 KU-

This is using an Amiko non-PLL LNB, which is remarkable. However, I do not know the audio PIDS for this feed, which appears to be the "Family Life Ministries" mux.
