[QUOTE="Rd100, post: 517277"] First off the link you posted was to a ku-band prime focus feedhorn not a c-band feedhorn, The c-band lnb i brought well i brought a few of that same dealer now only cost me less than £20 delivered and i did not pay any tax on it, I am not sure if c-band would work on your fibo as i a sure you could not fit the scalar ring on the lnb as the dish arm would be in the way, You would be better of using a 1.2 offset fortec star as you can get a 65mm lnb holder for it see here _http://sadoun.com/Sat/Products/S/LNBHolder3.htm or a 1.5m gibby Also the 1.8m prime focus fortec star is very good for c-band i used one in the past and it was good and you can use the scalar ring that comes with the lnb as it is a prime focus dish, If you do want to use a offset dish conical scalar rings are hard to get hold of but this company sells them _http://www.satshop24.de/satshop24_s/c_band_offset_trichterfeedhorn.html you can use the prime focus scalar ring on a offset but you will lose a few db with out a conical offset scalar ring Also see these links below as there is not much info on c-band on this forum, c-band on a 1.2m dish _http://forum.dxtv.de/wbb/thread.php?threadid=1072 C-band on a 1.8m dish _http://forum.dxtv.de/wbb/thread.php?threadid=12556 c-band _http://forum.dxtv.de/wbb/board.php?boardid=43 c band lnbs _http://h**p://www.satshop24.de/satshop24_s/lnb_und_zubehoer_spezial_lnb_fuer_das_c_.html [/QUOTE]
