[QUOTE="satesco, post: 1162692, member: 297935"] It is good that you are considering a rotator/changer for your LNBs for the three bands. At least, if you don't get what you want on one, you can have something else on the other. That way, you can console your passionate soul if you are disappointed with a C-band. Unfortunately, no matter how good your results on a band are, you will be frustrated and sad anyway. You can't separate a passion into pieces. It's whole or not at all. Metaphorically speaking, that lnb changer is a transition from one state of mind/soul to another, one of highs and lows. :) I don't mean to be too critical, but the 5G LNBs being sold now have a commercial value first and then a technically precarious one. The manufacturers of such LNBs have realized that the C-band bandwidth is getting narrower because of the 5G signal. Officially, many satellite operators must comply with the FCC's (Federal Communications Commission) decision to allocate the frequency band from 3.7 to 4.2 GHz. However, this band is much narrower, namely, from 3.8 to 4.2GHz, because 5G has become even more aggressive, and in many cases, it affects even 3.8GHz. Here is, for example, how the signal received with a Mediastar 5G lnb (3.7-4.2GHz) and a Titanium 5G Red(3.8-4.2GHz) looks on the spectrum. The test was done at 93.5E on an Indian satellite, G-17. I used a 90's Taiwanese lnb, which has a filter; there is no big difference between it and Mediastar 5G. [/QUOTE]
