[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1128374, member: 178786"] Try checking out Lyngsat, Flysat and the C-Band section of the forum, plenty of info there. You might get lucky with 43.1W in C-Band but with a 1.8m offset dish I think it will need to be aligned fairly accurately. 'ere, cop for the picture below, it shows the two different C-Band frequencies I locked on 43.1 West last time I checked it some time ago. I actually locked four different frequencies but two of them are no longer listed as being active so I excluded them from the table. If you can get the two bad boys listed in the table below with your 1.8m dish you are doing well. However, if you are struggling with 55.5 West I think you are up against it with 43.1 West unless your arc is getting worse the more extreme West you go? If your arc is bitched up, you might find it easier to grab 150 channels from 40.5 West in C-Band as it is less extreme and one of the easiest to get. The kids round 'ere are pulling in signals from 40.5W using the inside surface of a wheely bin lid coated with bacofoil and a broomshank for elevation adjustment. .
