Please explain about C/ku, is it C band with a small dish, and do the receivers that are C/ku, able to work on Cband if you have the correct LNB. Please give the details, no one liners, please. Joe

if its NTSC and no sr, it is analog

you can't put that into a digital receiver...you need an analog receiver (the old C/Ku receivers on Ebay work the best)

C-band is a minimum of a 6 foot dish. Although some people can get digital C-band with a 4 footer or smaller. Analog C-band needs a 5-6 foot dish or bigger
KU band is what most of us have. The main difference between analog & digital is analog is 1 channel per transponder. Digital can stick 5,6,10,15+ channels per transponder. Also, the transponder can be split to 3 spots (upper, middle, lower)

Analog has a much clearer picture, since it is using the whole transponder.

There are lots of sports feeds still on analog (both C & Ku band). The reason I always say “C/KU receiver” is because the old setups had the capability of both (depending on the LNB’s you have)

I have 2 C/KU receivers for just KU band

4:2:2 = High Definition

4:2:2 does not always mean HD...my box can get 4:2:2 but its looks scrambled
HD hoses up my box
