C Band Dual Output LNB

[tmsani]

I am looking for C band Dual output LNB which one is best?
Between DMX242 & GeosatProC2 which one performs better?

 

[DK_Sat]

Go with the GeosatProC2 it has a better performs

I have both, and I can't tell the difference. I suspect you won't be able to either.

Thanks for your comments...I was told by person in one of the satellite shops here that the dual output LNB's provide weak signals compared to the single output signal is it true? The shop fellow kind of scared me that i won't be able to pick some of the weak signals off the dual output LNB which i can using single output LNB....

This post suggests, at least in one instance, that a manufacturer's dual-output C-only LNBF, works even better than their single-output model.
And better than their C/Ku model:

I have both models....no difference

the C2 is on one C-band dish and the 242 is on another...

I bought the DMC242 dual output LNB...One issue iam facing is i am not getting horizontal frequencies on one of the outputs...Not sure where i am going wrong...

few ideas:

Where do the two outputs go? Switches? Two receivers?

Have you checked that the failing output actually has +18 volts, to select Horizontal?

Try swapping the cables at the LNBF and describe what happens.

Thanks for the ideas...the two ouptut goes to 2 different diseqc switches & then on to 2 receivers....I will swap cables @ LNBF first then switch...
