I am not sure what model number or make is on this one.

It is a Dovetail LNBF and I assume a Primestar, but I am not certain.

It has two ports, one is labeled V/R and the other H/L.

There are two numbers on the inside, underneath the rear cover. a "sticker" with 6282 which I think is an inspectors tag, maybe. And an ink printed label with the following numbers: 965130681, which seems more like a serial number. Other that this, I find no other numbers on the unit.

Do you recognize this little fella?

Note the embossed logo on the rear cover, is this not a Primestar logo?

Thanks guys

Radar,
Yes it is a Primestar LNB but not sure on what model that is. I had Primestar back in the early 90's and that is what my dish had on it! Gave the dish away some 9 years ago though which I am still kicking myself in the rear! Anyway, it is defiantly a Primestar dove tail (bar) and I am sure some member here knows the model and who made it!!

yep thats a Primestar LNB. Have 2 of them for the 84e dishes but one died :(

They're kinda nice as they dont stick out as far as the "beercan" model but its the same concept. Separate V & H polarity outputs

I think its a .7 n/f but dont let that fool you. I've seen those LNB"s outshine some cheapy .3 LNB's ;)
 
Same LNB that was on the 1 meter Channel Master that I dragged across Causeway Blvd.! Here on Satelliteguys, we've all been calling it the Dove Bar LNB, since the cover is shaped like a bar of Dove soap ;) The external cover can be removed to expose the LNB itself. It was distributed by Primestar, has fixed H and V outputs, and mounts to a C-120-flanged feedhorn.
 
Is this LNBF supposed to be capable of circular signals as well?

It is marked that way... V/R and H/L above the two ports.

Thank you guys!
