i have the same dish but dont have the lnb holder please could give me some pictures of the lnb holder

ok looking at the footprint and my location how big the dish should be.

just one more question is it possible to get ku band signal out of footprint.

yes got promax HD+

thanks

thanks. But will try and see how it goes.

new to this forum appreciate some feedback before i invest in buying materials.
