[QUOTE="Satcom1, post: 669411, member: 302061"] Hi Searay, Because of your location a larger dish is required for good C band reception. In Omaha one can get good C band on a 1.2m offset dish. A solid dish is a better performer then a mesh dish. The older mesh dishes (prior to 1991) are good for C but not Ku. However, most get the bigest dish they can find and use it for C band, then get a 1m or 1.2 m offset for Ku. Any of the cheap 13K C band lnbf work very good. Panorama, BSC 421, DMX241. My first lnbf for Ku was an Invacom qph-031 and I soon replaced it for a cheapo eBay Standard 10750 lnbf. Sadoun has a good price on a 6' PF polar mount dish. I'll PM you with info on another site you can use for more info. edit: you don't have PM privelages, sorry. Google satelliteguys.us [/QUOTE]
