hi I am using a 30 inch dish and an quad invacom lnb, I wonder if I can get c band channels and wich lnb I can use or combine with the invacom that I am using, I have a traxis 6000 and openbox s9 receivers, if anyone can give an advise please. I will really appreciate. thanks

You may get a couple of the very strong transponders. I would not try it though unless you just want to experiment. There are several threads here on the topic of mini and micro budding though. Do a quick search and you can read what others have had to say.
 
I would really be surprised if you had any luck with c band on a 30" but you could try it for around $35 to $40 if you want. You would need a cheap c band lnbf and a conical scalar and lnb holder combo.

Most people using mini buds to pull in some c band signals are using either a 39" or 47" dish. I have seen a few folks use 36" dishes but I think that is really too small for consistent tv watching.

If you decide to give it a try 99W is your best shot at pulling in some channels.
