My System: ASC 1.2M -JAEGAR 1224 SUPERMOUNT - 0.2DB LNB - IPBOX 9000HD TWIN DVB-S2 TUNERS 300GB - V-BOX SUPERJACK 2 POSITIONER |
Is it possible to have a both a cband and kuband lnb on one dish i've got a standard universal 40mm lnb on it at the moment and recently had a kuband feedhorn come and i was going to get myself a invacom quad but was just wondering is there a lnb out there that does both bands or can you put two lnbs on one dish if so is a bracket of some sorts required has anyone got a link please? i rather just fork out for a combined lnb to be honest but not sure one exists | ||

My System: IDD CI24 ECONO MM Penta 1.20 Galaxy II 1.2Mtr Polar MTG yes it has been on the arc for 21 years and is still driven by a modified wiper motor from a Ford Anglia.

Without any dish information from you it is unlikely you will get a response from members, what C band transmissions are you after in the UK?, there are practically none available above Europe, even then it depends on dish size | ||

My System: 75e-75w C & KU, 36v h-h /36v & diseqc actuators / diseqc -USALS motors / Anlg to HD Channel Masters C120s dishes, stb's inc echo3000, lnbs, meters, custom polar mounts & elevation/incline actuator conversions... | Half way down the page I think... _http://www.galaxy-marketing.com/ku_band_lnbf.htm On just an asc 1.2 for C Band use ... I'd prefer an actuator to alter the elevation with a dedicated C Band LNB on top of the KU band LNBf... I think the scala plate thing on those C Band LNBs are useless on that dish too... just leave it off or fashion a new one for the asc 1.2's .6 f/d ratio. I know it's a bit messy to add an actuator but you also gain a lot of control for sats on inclined orbits and better focus on different difficult sats within a cluster and that dish's AZ/EL lends itself a bit more than most.... | ||

freaky12 Can I suggest you put your equipment information in your profile where it belongs, putting it in the title is not helpful. | ||

My System: ASC 1.2M -JAEGAR 1224 SUPERMOUNT - 0.2DB LNB - IPBOX 9000HD TWIN DVB-S2 TUNERS 300GB - V-BOX SUPERJACK 2 POSITIONER | Updated my profile. It's a andrews channel master 1.2 on a 1224 supermount. tracking the arc from 34.5w to 62.0E tried getting 68.5e but its to low on the horizon as i've got trees etc in the way. I will upload pictures tonight. but i want to get some of the c-band stuff on the various satellites i aint really bothered about what guess i just want to have the facility to do so if needs be. | ||
