I have a 10' alum. mesh dish. Polar mount and motor to move it. A Chaparral LNBF. Fortec Merc II and V Box.
I would like a C-KU LNB. What do you recomend and will it fit my feed horn or do I need some thing else? Also would like a analog box to slave off the Merc. recomendations on this needed too.
Do I need a reed switch? If I do how does it hook up?
Thanks.
 
The BSC621-2 is a "C/Ku LNBF" meaning it is the whole works (feed horn, C-band LNB, and Ku-band LNB). It also has a built in diseqc switch and operates polarity (H/V) via the coax cable and 13/18 volts. You would replace the entire feedhorn with this.

So this will work for C/Ku connected to the Mercury II.

The old style feedhorns have a servo polorizer with 3 wires and there is no way to connect this directly to the Mercury II.
