[QUOTE="mapperuo, post: 983558, member: 389888"] Hi there! I'm trying to get an old 2.4 meter dish working with C Band and have been unsuccessful in getting a single thing! I've pointed Ku dishes about before without issue. From where it is I can see 20w onwards to about 60w, The aim was 47.5w but I can't seem to find it. I fear the amount of variables are against me - C Band LNB skew, the diaelectric plate orientation etc. I am using this LNB: [URL]https://www.amazon.co.uk/C2W-PLL-Dual-Output-C-band-Wideband/dp/B00JMKZT7S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1472666201&sr=8-2&keywords=c+band+lnb[/URL] I have set the Skybox FS7 to 5150 in the LNB settings also. One final point - I did briefly have this dish pointing at 16e Ku and it performed slightly worse than my 1.8m Raven so I'm fairly sure it 'works' It's just this new C Band thing thats confusing me. Hope you can assist. [/QUOTE]
