It takes a lot of time and effort to figure things out on C Band , I've had a 10 foot dish for many years when it was analog and was easy to find satellites, now that it's digital you have to be right on the money, I learned a lot about C Band from a 86 year old man at a Ham swap in Traverse...

Great News on getting rid of the interference, was you titanium C-138 a 5gRed? Just wondering glad you got it figured out JimG

Thought I would let everyone know that I did get the 8 foot dish up and running, was the LNBF the New 5G interference have to be set on skew to 0 Horizontal not vertical, and that took Care of the problem, thank you to you all for the information , you are a great team, thank you Jim Gauthier KD8FHC

I think I found my problem, the LNBF he purchased was a titanium 5g interference, the skew is supposed to be set at 0 Horizontal not vertical, so Will try that tonight and see if it takes care of the problem, will keep you posted thanks again for the help

Thank you for the information, I've set up several systems and never had this kind of problem, equipment is all new digital, but I think maybe LNBF might be the problem?, But gonna go through all the steps and make sure I have everything set correctly, thank you

Hi guys, I'm helping my friend with a 8 foot dish and we're not having any luck with finding any satellite's, was thinking maybe the dish is to small? Or maybe a bad LNBF? We're in Northwest Michigan so maybe need a 10 foot dish?
