[QUOTE="karism, post: 391550, member: 251660"] Morning Everyone. Now that BADR C-Band has been beaten. Let’s move on to the next and even more impossible project. (Insert Dr. Evil laugh here) Why do I want BADR Ku so bad? Well, the MBc channels look very interesting, as well as some of the other offered on there. For me to receive Badr Ku band here in South Africa ( 25`40`32 S 28`14`5 E ),well one would basically require a miracle ,or perhaps not? So lets look at the Coverage map that comes down Africa the furthest. From what I can see, it looks to me like this one. [url]http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/badr4_bss.html[/url] Ok, so this is where things get difficult. For everyone who has given some pointers on the LNB`s and everything else.Thank You very much.Perhaps I can gain a little from a better LNB,but I don’t think it will be worth the cost. You all know what I have by now, but let me list it anyway. Metabox 3 STB,with a few Encryptions programmed in. 3m KTI Prime Focus Mesh. Ku Band Gain off at least 47.9 DBI @ 12.20 GHZ Gospell 55db 0.3db LNB Motorised Bracket with a Superjack motor. As soon as it gets warmer than 2deg C here, I`ll start having a look.(Hopefully the weekend) Please chime in! :):) Karis [/QUOTE]
