    I need Expert LNB advise

    I just converted from a generic cir polar LNB to a new Invarcom QPH-031 and my signal quality has dropped somewhat. Also not picking up the Anik sats like I intended. Getting SBS 6 at 74W at quality 90%

    I have a 80cm Fortec dish with a Stab HH90 motor and a Pansat 3500sd FTA rx. My location is central Florida (29N 81W).

    Prior to the new QPH my quality on Echo7 was 85% now at 40%, Echo 8 was at 85% still at 85%, Nimiw 1.3 was 95% now at 70%. The signal levels have not changed.

    I installed the QPH with leads to the DiSEqC, to the motor, to the FTA.

    In my opinion the QPH works ok but for some reason I am not getting Echo 7 like I was previously. Did the extra weight to the dish arm make any difference? If so, how do I compensate.

    Opinion requested.

    E8 is Level 70% Quality 56% (before Quad quality was 90%)
    E9 is Level 65% Quality 40%
    Nim 1.3 is Level 77% Quality 89% (no complaints here)

    Lnbf settings
    Lnb = Standard

    22hz=off
    DiSEqC=#4
