[QUOTE="s-band, post: 1029072, member: 407744"] I'm totally confused. The only "Full band" chip set I have found is the Broadcom: [URL="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/broadcom-delivers-multi-channel-dvb-s2x-satellite-set-top-box-chip-300093528.html"]Broadcom Delivers Multi-Channel DVB-S2X Satellite Set-Top Box Chip[/URL] That article above gives an IF of 250-2350MHz whereas other Broadcom info suggests just 950-2150: [URL="https://www.broadcom.com/blog/broadcoms-full-band-capture-digital-tuning-that-enables-much-mo"]Broadcom's Full-Band Capture: Digital Tuning That Enables Much More Bandwidth With Much Less Energy[/URL] [URL="https://www.cedmagazine.com/news/2014/09/broadcom-debuts-family-satellite-stb-chips-4k-support"]Broadcom debuts family of satellite STB chips with 4K support[/URL] The above ties in with Sky Q.
