Best 80cm dish?

[canford]

Hi guys due to the limitations around the outside of the house this is the biggest size dish i can go to, what is the best 80cm dish/LNB/Motor to buy,thanks.

if you can squeeze to an 85cm one go for a Gibertini.as to LNBs the technomate gold range are as good as any though inverto blk ultras seem to get the best reviews at the moment.I have only ever used Technomate motors and never had any probs with them but every one will have their favorite.if money is not a problem go for a STAB.

Inverto Black ultra lnb is excellent.
Dark motor/tm motor
TD88 which is 88cm dish is good if you can get away with it.

Some great info here lads,looks like i am spoilt for choice, like the sound of the 85cm Fracarro Penta as it will just fit.

Fracarro Penta, Inverto Black Ultra LNB and Superior Dark Motor or TM2600.

Dont forget decent bracketry too. I would personally avoid 'L brackets' even if they claim they're heavy duty and suitable for motorised, use some decent T & Ks and length of scaffold pole.

I have used a galvanised L bracket for 5 years, never an issue.
Quality can be the issue.

Has anyone used the new intelligent Superior Dark Motor, looks good and suppose to easy to set up.

Manic 5 years is a long time in this game and materials or should i say lack of them lead to poorly produced brackets these days, I have seen some of the so called sturdier ones bend slightly with 1m and above dishes installed on them.

I bet 5 years ago when you got yours it was probably made to last these days we live in a throw away society.

I have installed a few of them they are identical to the superior with just a little LCD screen on top, i will put it this way i use my meter to align and not the LCD screen and it only works when the dish is moving and stays on a couple of seconds when it hits a satellite. Its not perfect but it will give you some idea of the sat your on.

Always buy quality is the answer.
