Universal LNB frequencies question

The main reason I am using a universal is the .4 rating (I had a .5 and a .6 that I was using)

only one I can see that is universal is PAS9...all the rest are regular KU band

There is TVRi on i905 (used to be on i903) and occasional feeds pop up that are using lower band.

I am sure you will come to the conclusion: "Why use a standard 0.5 or 0.6 dB KU band LNBF, when you can use a UNIVERSAL 0.4 or 0.3 KU band LNBF which will get me all the signals that the STANDARD will get plus:

1- More channels
2- Lower noise figure, which translates into better signal gain and quality of anyweher between 10-20%."

No brainer.

cant see that far east...I'm in MN

best I can do is 37.5 (T11)
 
Exactely Sadoun. I have a universal 0.3db and I get signals much better. I have never had any problems with it..maybe thats just dumbluck though.

This is the first time I have heard of any probs with a universal, however others say they are tempermental. Also in icebergs case with his setup,analog etc.. I understand his problems. Like a few posts before, I set mine to standard lnbf and set freq to 10600 and thats it. I think thats where the confusion was....if you set it to universal, it automatically switches.

Great posts for me, didn't even know switching occured.
Hope you figure it out iceberg.
 
went home and changed the LNB frequency on all my satellites except for PAS9 to 10600 and now it doesn't take forever to scan

What was weird is when I did SBS6, Ohio News is the first TP in memory and it worked with the LO at 9750 22k off and at LO 10600 22k on
 

You spoke with? I don't think so. That information was directly copied and posted from another forum, and from and individual I'm fairly certain you didn't 'speak' with. And also someone whom I know wouldn't appreciate his efforts and information being pasted and posted at will and not given the credit for.
