I need a Quad LNB & Satellite Finder for Poor Satellite Reception in Spain
Seamus asks;
I need a Quad lnb for poor satellite reception in Spain. Also does your satellite finder come with a connection lead?
TV Trade's answer;
the satellite meter comes with the following accessories:
- Satellite meter
- Waterproof pouch for the meter
- Mains charger
- Car charger
- Foam padded presentation box
- Instruction manual (In English on Attachment Tab)
- No Lead provided but - I can of course add in a lead to allow you to connect the satellite meter to the Satellite dish.
- add shipping note "please include a coaxial Lead with a compression F on one end and a screw on f connector on the other"
This meter really is ideal for Professional or serious DIYers. It comes with:
- a 10cm LCD display screen which means you watch TV on the meter
- over 70 satellites pre-programmed into the meter
- can be used to set up motorised system
- Built in compass
Note 2 lower cost alternative products to this are:
- the DIY Satellite finder - very basic meter but gives a good guide
- UHF Meter & Satellite Finder - can be used to align both UHF aerials and also Satellite dishes
With regard to a Quad LNB and poor reception area there is a few points to note
In general there is no such thing as a "bad reception" in terms of satellite reception
Buying the best Quad LNB in the world will not solve your underlying problem
So what should I do If I am struggling to get good reception is say Spain
1. Get a bigger dish - figure our how large your dish should be and buy that size. The largest dishes we sell are:
2. Align you dish properly
Do this buy either getting in a professional satellite installer with all the right equipment and experience
Buying a good satellite meter - with the best we sell being the S10 professional satellite finder
3. LNB
a good LNB is important but most LNBs on the market will work fine if the dish is correctly sized and properly aligned.
- For a sky satellite dish choose a quad LNB
- for a universal satellite dish (regardless of size) choose a universal quad LNB
Hope the above helps
