You wont get any c-band on an 80cm m8.

You wil need a 1.8m prime focus and above for best results.

Buddy if you are buying a new one go it for 8 to 14 ft , And about your question that depends up on which satellites you need to watch, If they fall in your area, you can grab it.

I can get hte c-band channels on pas 68.5 (multichoice) on my 1.8m prime focus with c-band LNB-F but that is just about pulling them in to be safe you would need a 2.0m,

Also no point in useing a offset as 99.9% of c-band feedhorn and c-band LNB-F'S are for prime focus dishes

No as the all have ku-band linear feedhorns and you would need a c-band linear or circular feedhorn depending if the satellite you wanted is linear or circular polarity
