C/KU

[shanklej]

Equipment:
Linkbox 9000i, Ttitanium ASC1, Titanium CK1S, Pansat diseq2 and 10' dish

In the past with other equipment I found C and KU on every satellite.
If I look at the satellite put out by the LinkBox 9000i the only KU
satellite I see is Galaxy19. I am still installing the system and will
sweat the C band 1st.
At the present time I see no way to control how I would watch a KU channel
versus a C channel.
Thanks for any help.

The 9000i satellite list has both C-band and KU-band satellites included. If you are using a 22KHz switch, make sure that the correct switch setting is selected for each satellite.
Example: If the C-band output is connected to the 22/OFF port and the KU output is connected to the 22/ON port, each programmed C-band satellite will have 22KHz selection set to OFF with LO selection of 5150 and each programmed KU satellite will have the 22KHz selection set to ON with LO selection of 10750.

Thanks for answering Brian.
I do not have a 22KHZ switch and don't know how to use one
or where to install it. Does Hypermegasat sell them?
I think I should sweat the C band 1st and then tackle the KU band.
There is to much on KU not to use it.

Sorry, my error. Use your DiSEqc switch.

Make sure that the correct switch setting is selected for each satellite.
Example: If the C-band output is connected to port 1 of the switch and the KU output is connected to port 2, each programmed C-band satellite will have DiSEqC switch selection selection set to port 1 with LO selection of 5150 and each programmed KU satellite will have the DiSEqC switch selection set to port 2 with LO selection of 10750.
