[QUOTE="archive10, post: 1043242"] If it's a prime focus dish, you are unlikely to have much success in Ka-band. Ka-band requires very high precision reflectors, and any 8-piece 1.8m reflector will requiere extreme adjustment to perform. Ku-band is better, and C-band easiest. Is the dish a solid reflector (steel, alu), or is it a mesh-style dish? In the latter case, it's really only for C-band. If it's a 6-petal job with an integrated bracket and mount, then it is really best suited for C-band (it's probably a Jonsa steel dish, see elsewhere on this site). But ... it could be something else... any info or even pictures would be extremely helpful before we start discussing possible sat reception... :) [/QUOTE]
