Not the V8UHD.
The V7Pro and GTCombo both are better the the last good one the V8Pro2.

All units loose sensitivity over time and having LNB shorts, I think, lowers it too.
LNB's the same. A new one works better then the same model 6 months old.

Satellite comment only. Not the DVB-T.

The best sensitivity is given not by the receiver but by the 'antenna system'. In the satellite field it means by the dish - perfect alignment and size - and the lnb's performance: very low noise figure (NF in the technical specs).
Improving this aspect is the best thing you can do, with no doubts!

Thanks for the info, i know that over the years that i have been doing this hobby, it is not just down to the receiver, but with limited space / trees etc,
You have to make adjustments.
