Hi Ikki, I pm'd you. Also I did see that c band dish would possibly see Intelsat 9 at 58 w from AZ but the tracker recommends 240cm dish! That's almost 8 ft!! I don't think my backyard is big enough for that... Any help would be appreciated greatly... Thanks. John.

Since my aim is to get Asian channels, I'm also looking into getting a C band dish. I read that 1.2 meter dish can get some C channels, so I'll read more on that. I'm sure looking into HD or even SD receiver w/ C or Ku band will work. I think motorized may be the way to go for me also. So...

Tron, Awesome! That's exactly the answer I was looking for (at least one of them) :D. Is motorized dish like having a fixed w/ multiple LNBs? Or can you use one / single Lnb and move to different sat. and receive it's signal?

You're right about the spec on the MaxHD. I heard that it was replacing 9000 model. I'll look into a cheap SD and 1 meter dish w/ dual LNBFs just to start.

Thanks Gordy, I'll try the website and other resources before making final decision. I was ready to buy yesterday, but because of the new info. I'll re-think it. I really don't want to have C band dish (reminds me of the 80s) in the back yard.

Thanks for that insight. I heard that Max HD was the best selling HD receiver now. Plus it's got HDMI output which I want. I'll do more diggin' and reconsider getting other HD system or even a cheap SD.

Ikki, Thanks a lot for your advice, I will aim for 97 and 101. I'll get the dual LNBFs.

Hello guys, I'm very new to this FTA, but been reading some posts and articles on very general topics. My question is what size dish is good for getting a good quality signal? (assuming that the size of the dish corresponds to signal reception strength) I could be wrong w/ that, but I...
