In a previous thread what receivers work best with LPB all 3 of mine can seem to get it in. I am using amiko mini hd, nano and Micro Hd.
 
Can, or can't? My Mini HD SE gets it, but it's weak. Some drop outs. IIRR a bump E or W sometimes helps. Pretty sure the Openbox S9 also got it. (Ku dish on lip of BUD)
Can't get it all today with the 35mph winds with 50+mph gusts. Dishes bouncing around too much. A lot of topsoil is moving north.
(Two farmers out looking at the fields. Farmer one;"there goes all my topsoil". Farmer 2:"yeah, but here comes mine")
Sounds like the winds aren't going to let up anytime soon. Other than the natural evening moderation.

I've never had a problem with a receiver decoding LPBS. It's always been a problematic signal though.

A week or so ago in testing with an 84e dish connected directly to an Amiko Mini HD, I had no issues. I later tore the dish down and erected another 84e dish and tested multiple dishes switched through various DiSeqC 1.0/1.1 switches. I could not get a lock on LPBS then, even when directly connected.

What are the sensitivity limits on signal frequency and SR deviations when trying to get a lock?

Receivers I've had success with:

Geosatpro Micro HD and HDVR1200

Amiko A3 and Mini HD

Azbox Premium HD+

Prof8000 PCI card.

Sent from a phone, probably while I'm driving over the speed limit through a school zone with construction workers present.

In this pic, I'm running the Amiko A3 through an 8x1 diseqc on an 84e dish.
