Could you explain "BBC" and "the BBC is a l.o"
ta
The BBC is a b-band converter.
It takes the signal from the direct TV lnb and block converts the input signal to one the sat box can "see"
The BBC is a local oscillator.
Most people put a diseqc switch in line you run 2 cables from the direct TV lnb, and put the BBC inline, on one of the cables.
Example
And by choosing input 1 = 19ghz
And by choosing input 2 = 18ghz
And I think it uses the 22khz tone to choose the feed horn, you want to use.
If you chop up a credit/debit card you can make a dilectric plate for 1 feed horn this would give you horizontal and virtical.
