Upgrade the single LNB to a Primesat Platinum quad LNB
For use with 2 twin tuner receivers, e.g. Sky+ HD or a freesat twin tuner PVR or for use with multiple
receivers on one fixed dish. For example, a signal can be provided to 4 single tuner receivers or 1 twin
tuner receiver and 2 single tuner receivers.
A High Performance Primesat Platinum LNB.
This is a quad
Primesat Platinum high performance 0.1dB LNB from "
Primesat Professional Products".
This LNB is ideal for low signal areas. Suitable for HD. Suitable for 3D. Suitable for 4K. A very high quality product.
White is an excellent colour for an LNB for two reasons. The first is it looks better. When looking up at a satellite dish,
there is mostly a light or cloudy sky and so white against the sky blends in very well. The second reason is more technical.
White keeps the LNB's internal heat in during the winter and in the summer white reflects the external heat from the sun.
This keeps the LNB cooler and results in less extreme temperature cycling. Temperature cycling should be kept to a minimum
for performance to be maintained. A white cap is even more important as it reflects the suns heat (which can focus on the cap)
and prevent a hole from burning through the cap. If there was a hole in the cap the spiders can crawl in and block the signal.
Only the TV signal should go through the cap, not the heat. In addition, there are better connections due to gold connectors.
Upgrade the single LNB to a Primesat 0.1dB Platinum Quatro LNB.
Ultimate performance LNB with 2 year warranty
A high performance 0.1dB LNB. This LNB is ideal for low signal areas. Suitable for HD. Suitable for 3D. Suitable for 4K.
White is an excellent colour for an LNB for two reasons. The first is it looks better. When looking up at a satellite dish,
there is mostly a light or cloudy sky and so very light grey against the sky blends in very well. The second reason is more
technical. White keeps the LNB's internal heat in during the winter and in the summer (almost) white (very light grey) reflects
the external heat from the sun. This keeps the LNB cooler and results in less extreme temperature cycling. Temperature cycling
should be kept to a minimum for performance to be maintained. A white cap is even more important as it reflects the suns heat
(which can focus on the cap) and prevent a hole from burning through the cap. If there was a hole in the cap the spiders can
crawl in and block the signal. Only the TV signal should go through the cap, not the heat. In addition, there are better
connections due to gold connectors. High band, vertical on one output, high, horizontal on the 2nd, Low, vertical on a 3rd
and low, horizontal on the 4th. (Suitable for supplying the signal to a multi switch in a multi room satellite point system.)
The LNB feeds into a multi switch and multi switches are available on the
Multiswitches Page
Do not mix up quatro LNBs with
quad LNBs. Quatro LNBs are ONLY for use with
multiswitches.

More information on the FS700 meter.
Used in a forest in Belgium. More details below.
This meter is ideal for installers, mobile caravan use or DIY. Since it identifies the satellite, set up time is usually under two
minutes. Please don't mix this meter up with others you may find on the Internet which look similar. These meters are specially
built and prepared for the Satellite Superstore. This includes many satellites. This includes Astra 2 for Sky or freesat, Astra 1,
Hotbird (13E), Thor (1W), Hispasat (30W) and many others. Indeed all of the satellites we can see in our sky with a reasonable
sized dish are included. If there are changes in the future, satellites can be added or edited using the keypad. To use the meter,
you switch on using a proper on-off switch (so no battery drain while off) then select "Installation", then "Dish setting".
Select 28.2E Astra 2. At the bottom of the screen are the signal strength and signal quality meters and a large quality LED
display on the meter all ready to start. It could not be easier. After the first use, the meter defaults to the last satellite
chosen and so if it is only going to be used for (e.g.) Astra 2 for Sky or freesat, selecting the satellite is not required as
it is already there. All you have to do is turn on the meter, press OK twice and it is ready to use.
Recently is was taken abroad for use with a caravan. The tour included Amsterdam, a forest in Belgium, near Paris, La Rochelle,
Normandy and back to Amsterdam (for the ferry). The 60cm Primesat caravan kit was used. Perfect results and all channels were
received in all of those locations with this dish. The meter was fantastic. In all but one location, it found the satellite
in under 1 minute. The location which took a bit longer was in the forest. (See pictures above) Here it was necessary to find
a gap / hole in the trees about 12m away from the caravan. Using the app "sat finder lite" in an iphone, a couple of gaps were
located as possible areas for Astra 2 and Astra 1 respectively. The gap for Astra 2 was quite small. Spending 1 minute looking
for Astra 2 and not finding it, it was decided to locate Astra 1 first as this is often an easier satellite to find when abroad and
the gap in the trees was a bit bigger. This was found with 1 minute. Re-checking for Astra 2 with the app / phone and the tripod
was adjusted left about 40cm. With another few minutes Astra 2 was found. The total set up time was 5 minutes. Other regular
Dutch people nearby had previously said it was not possible in that part of the forest and they were all amazed when they saw
it all working. This meter is highly recommended. This meter is at a very competitive price. See the FS700 above.
