Labgear 4K Quad VK4L 4 Output HD for SKY HD/Freesat HD with Bracket, Black

Used this to replace the LNB on my Satellite dish for Sky TV. From what I could tell I could receive Freesat channels with about 95% signal strength and quality, but sky channels would only work at about 50% signal strength and quality for for about 10 minutes after turning the sky box off and on.I had an old Thompson mini dish with quad LNB which came with the very early sky HD installations about 12/13 years ago. I tried to fit the new LNB the intended way, by taking the plastic adaptor off the old dish. But the new plastic adaptor would not fit to the rectangular metal support on the dish. The old LNB had the skew 1 to 5 markings and the new one has angles on. So I tried the old plastic adaptor with the new LNB. This worked without any realignment needed, but I did a few things which probably helped as follows:There was a seam in the plastic mould of both the new and the old LNB right on the centre line at the top. So I marked the round collar on the old plastic adaptor where the seam was before removing the old LNB. Figured this must get me pretty close on skew. When I put the new LNB in the old adaptor I aligned mark with the seam on the new LNB. For focus in and out the old LNB had a much larger moulding around the white front and the new LNB does not look like the one in the picture on Amazon right now as it can be slid up and down pretty much it's full length in the collar (at least the one I received was like that, a note inside said it was the new 2017 mk4 version which need to be extended before fitting, it comes set forward to fit in smaller packaging I guess). So I set the focus, in and out of the new LNB so it roughly matched where the collar would be in relation to the start of the white plastic on the old LNB.After fitting I went and turned back on my Skybox to check the signal strength and to my surprise having had to mess about a bit with the installation it was better than I have ever had without any realignment. Happy days job done in about 1 hour.Note, having done a bit if reading up as I was having problems with my reception I used Silicon Grease on the connections as well. Clearly the LNB was the main issue, but with the silicon grease on, any luck I'll be good for another 12/13 years.

replaced a unit that died. Easy to install and full bars of signal on all Freest channels.

Cancelled Sky TV as cost kept increasing. My LG smart had a satellite socket but wouldn't work with Sky Q LNB.Bought this one and just copied the skew angle from the Sky LNB. Perfect signal, 114 channels and ability to record. Well worth the £11 and 10 minutes to replace it. Still have 3 spare sockets for any other TVs where I can use a satellite dish.

This is as good as it gets if not better for the price. Ignorance has caused me a laugh not the product. Replacing sky q lnb ! Got everything on freesat except it with strong signal but poor quality. Up the ladder again for a bit of creativity. In future, I'll get a full dish arm and lnb off a regular supplier. You pay to learn.

Fantastic. It worked great and fitted on my sky dish perfect. Thanks for a great deal

Bought this to use with a freesat box we had. Super easy to replace the existing and fitted to the sky dish arm well. Included a small guide on where to angle so we received the best signal for our area. Build quality feels good. Tools used were: small flat head to remove existing lnb, long nose pliers to remove existing pin, and a Philips screw driver. Job completed in 15 minutes / 30 mins to check signal on the freesat box with all channels tested showing 100%.

Seems like a very good quality LNB. Four outputs, so works with fine with one or two Sky HD recording boxes. Straight swap for the existing LNB by removing the plastic LNB bracket from the end of the arm. I removed the split plastic locking peg and levered the sides of the bracket out, which let me pull the bracket up and away. Age and the cold weather meant the old bracket plastic had gone hard, so it was harder to remove than replace with the new one. I was worried the dish might move while I was pulling at the old bracket but it was fine. Saying that, I have a satellite signal meter so it wouldn't have been a huge problem if it had moved.

We moved into a new house on the weekend and after figuring out the reason we could only get Iranian news channels, we bought this cheap LNB to replace the sky Q one that was already here. I have no clue about satellite stuff and don’t have sky, we only have a freesat box which we plugged straight in at our last home and that worked without us needing to go anywhere near the dish. This is all totally new to me.I got it out the box, looked at the instructions and scrambled out the window onto the roof barefoot and probably looking totally clueless. After 10 minutes messing about with a flat head screwdriver to prise out the split pin holding the original LNB in place, and having to break off the side of the LNB in order to get it off, the new one easily slid on and into place. Immediately I now have all the usual freesat channels. Easy job and so happy! Think my boyfriend is secretly quite impressed. 🙄 - definitely recommend this cheap LNB - got a great picture and signal too.

Laat toe om alle nieuwe HD kanalen op de Astra 28.2 E te ontvangenKwaliteit van het beeld is super

Lo compramos para realizar una prueba con la recepción de la señal de satélite dividida en cuatro rangos y el resultado es excelente. Muy fácil de instalar, apenas hay que llevar los cuatro cables hasta un mezclador y luego derivar a cada toma.La señal de algunos satélites mejora sensiblemente, sobre todo cuando sintonizas emisiones del norte de Europa o del Reino Unido e Irlanda.Para los más atrevidos, puede parecer complicado, pero si ya dispones de la preinstalación y el mezclador, solo hay que conectarlo, direccionarlo y disfrutar.Quizás solo hay un pero por su coste y evidentemente porque en España también en esto parece que estamos apartados del resto de Europa, con serias dificultades para encontrar canales de libre emisión.¡Saludos!

Ok perfetto
