some would say both c & ku
but most of the older ones do both you have to get alot older to get c band only
if it has knobs on it then its too old
if your looking at certain models or ebay just let us know and we will let you know if we know it . most are heavy and cost a good bit to ship so they might not bring a high price some if you can find them are new old stock (NOS) thes are nice and usually have a manual included and Remote (sometimes this is the most important thing. some receivers are hard to program without a remote)

analog ?
4DTV ?
DVB digital ?
In addition to asking here, you might also look in our extensive library of manuals.
Will a Viewsat Ultra get Cband?
I am getting a 6' dish(in central Tx) and would like to setup for C/Ku with Viewsat Ultra. Also is the 922 the only way to get Dcipher ll. But for learning purposes do u suggest getting an analog receiver for starters and if so what is a good one? Thanks guys!

i would suggest setting up the 6 ft dish and using your viewsat to experience the DVB ( digital ) c and ku channels. then if you want to start building to that system to go from there.
First, I agree with Gabshere, above.
I wouldn't put the Viewsat on my top 3 most wanted list.
But, if you have it already, you can get started.
See what others have to say about: Mercury II, Pansat 3500sd, and Coolsat 5000.
If you are getting a dish with no LNB, and expect to ever put 4DTV onto it, you would want to avoid the BSC-621-2.
It's a switching thing.
However, the GeoSatPro CK1 and BSC-621 might both be suitable choices.
Make sure you get a proper mounting ring to fit the LNB to the dish, if that's required.
