    C band signal problems

    Check and see if your channels are being received on the correct polarity. https://titaniumsatellite.com/downloads/Guides/C138_C238_LNBF_Install_Guide.pdf

    C band signal problems

    Did you install the 238 with the same polarity orientation as the 138?

    What Happened to Everybody?

    Rick has ordered 300 V-boxes so there is still a lot of interest in FTA. I should probably buy 5 of them and stock up while they are still available. lol

    Prodelin 1.8m (0179-189)

    It will be used exclusively for Ku. This dish is barely 6 feet and too small in terms of gain and side lobe rejection for C-band. In my humble opinion a 10 footer is the bare minimum for C-band. I already have a 1.8m and a couple 2.4m Prodelins, so I would expect this one will perform very...

    Prodelin 1.8m (0179-189)

    Acquired a nice Prodelin yesterday in excellent condition. Very happy to see there wasn't a BUC installed on this dish like all the other Prodelins I have. I can simply bolt on an Inverto or Invacom LNB to the OEM feed horn without having to design a new feed horn support.

    Fiberglass dish repair

    Nice dish! Coincidentally I am taking down a Prodelin tomorrow morning. How did you get the dish so clean? I have a couple Prodelins that need it. I respect the fact that you want to fix the dings and make your dish as aesthetically appealing as possible. I definitely would do it if you have...

    LNB Bracket Needed

    My satellite warehouse is actually a building on my brothers farm 110 miles from me. I will be there on the weekend and look for one and send a picture.

    C band dish

    Before you order anything, get in your car and look for a used one. Lots of 10 footers still out there. Good Luck!

    Satnsound

    Thanks for the info Brian. You are right about the LNBF. It is built like a tank.

    Satnsound

    The output frequency is 950-2000 Mhz. I wonder if this LNBF is stacked?

    Satnsound

    This is the dish that came with the system. It is 35 X 31. I wonder how it will perform. Not a very good picture. lol

    Satnsound

    I picked up this system today for free on the local kijiji. Everything is brand new and was never installed. Obviously this old Mpeg-2 STB doesn't have much value, but I might be able to use the LNBF and the dish.

    Some old satellite brochures

    People think satellite programming is expensive today with DirecTv and Dish network. Check these prices that we were forced to pay. lol

    Restoring an AJAX H to H

    I was going through my Satellite warehouse (lol) and I found an old brochure for my Ajak. This is exactly what it looked like brand new.

    Best option to replace/upgrade this actuator?

    If I were you, I would spend some time looking for old dishes. I don't know where you live, but the areas just outside cities that had no cable are usually good places to look. Don't worry if the dish is wrecked when you are looking because you just want the actuator, feed horn, and LNB. You...

    Best option to replace/upgrade this actuator?

    Not sure I agree with the comments here that you need a 36 inch ball and screw. I used nothing but 24 inch Von Weise actuators for years on 10 foot fiberglass Prodelins without any problems. That was in Canadian winters with -35 C temperatures. The ball screw Thompson-Saginaws would freeze up...

    Found the old C Band equipment in my house.

    Brian, do you remember the Intersat IQ?
