The Norsat 3120 is the best for general purpose use. We have one at AllisonHouse, and I like it. But the absolute cream of the crop is the Norsat 3420. It offers 2 dB higher gain and a somewhat lower noise figure than the 3120. That said, it's more expensive than the 3120. SSEC used to have an old analog LNA/LNB for their massive dish to receive NOAAport. The day they swapped it out for a Norsat 3420, they got a jaw-dropping 17 dB gain. Their reception before the switch was awful. Now, it's fantastic. As long as you aren't in a very difficult or hostile reception environment, the 3120 will serve you very well for many years.
