Corotor II Plus Feedhorns

Does anyone utilize one of these on a 10 foot dish? Do you receive both C and KU band as good as having two dishes, one for C and one for KU.

You opened a can of worms with that one as there are those here that are really down on pretty much any combo C/Ku setup. While there "may" be some performance trade off with the combo feedhorn the advantage of having only ONE dish in the yard is what sells them to others. I use C/Ku combos on all my systems and there's seldom anything Ku that others lock that I can't.

Oh, and I did use a Corotor II on my Winegard dish before I switched it over to the C/Ku LNBFs that are no longer available.

Can you lock FSTV at 123w ??

I am just looking at all options and hearing everyones opinion.

The thing to consider on the corotor will be cost of the lnbs as the pll lnbs for the corotor run $175 up where as a pll lnbf for cband cost 50 and ku band cost 10

I prefer the C/Ku combo 10' dish myself. In fact I have two of them, one for my wife and one for me I don't use a Ku dish anymore.

Yeah I have in the past but I don't have it in my channel lineup now. Wrong brand for me.

No problems with reception. The big dish resists rain fade on Ku better than a Ku dish as well. But everything has to be perfect, none of this "good enough" business. It has to be right.
