My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

No - C-band uses much bigger dishes than Ku band. Also the lnb (the bit on the end of dish arm) is different.

You didnt say that though did you??

You said you had an Airtel dish - Airtel uses Ku band on Insat 4CR at 74E..

If you have a C-band dish available then why are you asking about the Ku band dish?? Just use the big one.

Or are you deliberately wasting our time??

Well then - you have your answer.

If you want to play with C-band you will have to buy a receiver that handles it.

Is there an LNB menu where you can adjust the local oscillator to receive frequencies from a C band LNB? I suspect not, and there may be restrictions on symbol rates too. Worth a try I suppose.
