My new Scalar ring and C-band LNB

[shawl_who]

This is the special CB1 lnb for C-band, for Ku band dishes.



Package included:

1. C band lnb

2. Scalar ring ( robust quality)

3. clamp

4. screws

That is for an offset dish, not necessarily Ku band type.

...it may also be anti-interference.Tell me/us if it is as I suppose!?

Highly unlikely, just a standard LNB, badged.

As @Channel Hopper says the scaler ring is for an offset dish.

3. clamp

Is that for particular dish or kind of universal one?

The clamp looks like the same holder that you get with the titanium c1pll lnb.

I hope the dish is bigger then 1 meter, otherwise you may have problems with signal quality.

I played around with trying for "C" band on a 1 meter dish, junked the idea after too much hair loss, and several bad Sun burns.

yes, clamp is specifically designed to fit on an offset arm, and is bigger than the normal Ku lnb clamps.

Its a normal scalar ring, reduces noise signals, thereby enhancing the actual signals.
Getting a flat signal increase of 6% using the scalar.

I ll fiddle around on a 1.2 m dish.
Sun burns... well, wont get them, as I usually track in the evenings/nights.

Yes, thats the one I ordered online.

Usually used on offset dishes, but could be used on prime focus ones as well, I guess.

You can get some stuff on a 1.2 dish, I used to have c-band on the side of my 1.25 Gibertini.

40°E/20°E are a very easy catch.

Just watch the position of the plate.

Good luck and happy hunting

Not in India , unless there is a New, New Delhi somewhere.

Thank you.
Already tried my hands on Intelsat 20 @68e.

Unfortunately, cant catch 40e/20e in this part of d world.

Here's my first C band hunt.... have a look ;)

I tracked 10 tps of IS-20 @68.5e on 4 ft dish

I normally view the forum with my iPhone in portrait view, so I didn't see the original posters location.

I need to turn the phone into landscape mode, then I can see the location.
