Hi everyone !!!!

I was wondering if it's possible to use a 180cm (6'' feet) FortecStar dish for 2-way Broadband Satellite access ? Is that dish capable of transmitting and receiving internet signal ? Could the 1 watt LNB from direcway fit on the holder ?
Does anybody have some technical information on the antenna's gain when transmitting signal.
 
I don't see why it wouldn't work. But, I think it would have to be done by a Certified Technician because of the send capabilities. Not meaning, you couldn't do it, but meaning FCC regulations. But, if I wanted to give it a try, what they don't know can't hurt them.

The first is the newer ODU which more than likley will not work.

The next is the olderstyle that may work.

The reason why is the olderstyle can be skewed @ the LNB.

Again Why are you trying?

Thanks Tate for replying, I am just trying because the signal strenght is too low, the system (0.74m dish, dw6000 mdem, 1 watt LNB) has been installed outside the us (Perhaps the original .74 dish is too small).

Since I had bought a 6'' FortecStar dish for TV sat reception, I was thinking of using it as a replacement of the original dish.

I have the LNB for residential service not those that are shown.
