For those who believe that a minimum 8' dish is needed to receive DVB-S2 signals on C-band it might be easier than you think.
Earlier this week I attached a GeoSat Pro C-band LNBF to my 4' Channel Master dish and started scanning in channels using an Openbox S9 receiver. To my surprise when I scanned AMC-3 I received all the RTV/TUFF TV/PBJ channels on the 4080H mux each having a signal strength 75% and above. In fact, these signal strengths compare to the same received on my 8' WS International dish.
Please note that NO adjustments were made to the dish or C-band LNBF. I simply installed and began scanning. I also received a CW channel in HD on Galaxy 28 that looked awesome which is also a DVB-S2 signal. I'm also receiving most of the channels on Galaxy 16 (Leasea, Networks, etc), Galaxy 17 (EWTN, WORD, etc), Anik F3 (TV HOT, MeTV, etc) and other satellites.
I'm going to be doing more scanning tonight to se what else I can receive before making adjustments to see if I can also receive the RTV 3800H mux.
