    I broke the screen in my Satlook micro, dropped it coming down from the ladder (not a big fall), anyway emailed emitor (manufacturer) asking how much a screen would be, they are looking for €60 plus €50 shipping for screen (self repair). Thats €110 for a 3" monochrome lcd, this seems mad money for such a small item, may not be buying an emitor again, anyone here ahve any dealings or know anywhere else I could get a screen for this.??

    Depends on the spec. Some of those things have a fairly custom LCD. The shipping cost is mad.

    You are right, the €110 is crazy. But getting exact matching OEM part could be hard.

    I have a Satlook Micro+
    It doesn't do DVB-S2 nor spectrum.

    Seriously consider an upgrade to one with DVB-S2 and spectrum. Needed for Saorsat or Distribution systems and 28.2 & 28.5 on multifeed, as you can see relative level of the 28.5E and 28.2E transponders as you slide LNB on multi-feed bar on 90cm dish.

    On smaller dishes, not an issue, but constellations of satelliites is an issue on bigger dishes.
    More of 28.2E will be going DVB-S2 also.
