some guys have 0.3 lnb some 0.2 and 0.1 whats the difference between them

[opsmonkey]

not much.. most people use a 0.3db or 0.2db.. the numbers relate to the decibels given out by the LNB (low noise block converter)..

the lower the number the better quality of sound and picture..

Most 0.1db LNB's are closer to 0.2db

thanks for that,that explains it nicely cheers

0.1db also fixes ''tune failed'' on dm800hd.

If you have a dm800 get yourself an ALPS tuner and an ALPS 0.1db LNB and all your sleepless nights will go
