Clarification of use
The dish as it was stock does *choice with a stock *choice lnbf, used in fringe areas of the north gives way better signal than the 30 inch dish, LESS RAIN FADE. Good *choice dish.
Same dish with bell lnbf and puck gives stronger signal to bell system. No RAIN FADE real good fringe dish. North west coast Canada has a real problem with bell's 18/20/24 inch dish crap, I fought with them for 4 years to get a larger dish, after they went digital, when I canceled them they offered a larger dish to stay with them. I said no, to little to late, long story.
Same dish with linear ku lnbf and puck for FTA like amc4, galaxy 10R really decent signal mid eighty's
Basically one dish to do all except mount to hh-90 2 5/16 I.D. mount, I'm working on it. Depends on how you want to set it up and what you require. Real good deal
The puck mod only maintains the dish as it was designed to get the best performance from it with different lnbf's and different satellites and systems. Eg. Puck mod and a * choice 39 inch dish setup to 98/99 for quality on *choice setup. 90 miles from Alaska, best previous was low to mid eighty's without puck mod and stock 30 inch with stock lnbf. The 39 inch has quite a bit higher signal quality than the 30 inch dish.
Best part is if you look around and ask sometimes you can get this dish free for the asking, mine came compliments of an apartment reno. just take it away before it goes to the landfill.
