You presumed right, I see that it is a c band bird. I guess I was hoping to maybe use an old superdish??? Is there any dish possible other than a 6 footer?
If you do a search for mini-bud or 40" c-band, there are numerous threads on here discussing using a 1.2 M dish for C-band. Results vary depending on the location of the person and the amount of tweaking they have done. I've being playing around with a little c-band on my 36", but so far have only been able to bring in analog channels.
Like its often said on here though ..... never say it can't work until you try it
um, you can cancel G23 C-Band....just scanned that transponder and all it logs is
