    C-Band project

    If you mount a dish on that you are going to have problems. I strongly recommend you either purchase or build (have built) a non penetrating peak mount like the ones available here: Baird Mounts

    Finally getting started in Cband!

    I may have found a mount for a primestar dish, if I can get it do you want it for your dish? If you are interested PM me.

    6 footer C-band dish

    Same product yes, which would ship from Atlanta not from the Florida area where as the private seller I linked to is in Louisiana, which is alot closer to Florida than Atlanta. FYI I also posted a link in the other forum sending the seller to this page, just trying to help two people out.

    Norsat LNB on Mini Bud

    I have a 1.8m (the $69 6 ft special) and have been researching what LNB(s) to use with it; others have advised using seperate dishes for C and Ku which doesn't make my wife happy. It sounds like you have had good results using a 1.8m dish; I'd like to learn more. Where would I acquire a dual...

    Big old dish on our property- someone please take it. FREE!

    I'm in Kalamazoo, MI - I can grab this dish but it sounds like it's not a good candidate. Could you expand upon the comment of "Can be made to work well but it's deep and can be hard to feed." To the original poster, email me at fastscirocco_2000@yahoo.com

    Neighbor may want me to move BUD

    I think you should forget 90% off the replies you received in this thread. He is going to be a neighbor, life will be much easier if the two of you can get along. Why try to offend him by painting a building ugly on purpose? Don't assume he is going to insist you move the dish, however do a...

    Any problems after putting up the BUD?

    IF you put one up after being denied a variance get a label from a 1 meter dish and stick it on the dish you set up. I don't know metric and doubt anybody else does, if someone asks show them the 1 meter rule while acting like the dish is 1 meter. :D

    Possible installation site, will it work?

    C and KU on a bud?

    How hard is it to get C and KU on a BUD, based on my reading it's best to have seperate LNB's. I have a 1 meter Winegard dish that I was going to set up but now I'm thinking of going bigggger! :D with an 8 - 10 foot bud. Or is it better to have a seperate dedicated KU and C dishs?

    Found a damaged BUD, now what?

    The repairs I've seen all of the screening was replaced with sheet metal. If I understand correctly if you want C and KU replaceing the screening with sheet metal will improve the KU signal ... is that right?
