Ive noticed that Satellites such as Galaxy 3C/C 95.0W, and Anik F1/C 107.3 have low Tp Frequencies starting at approx 3780 up to the 4500 range. When setting my Invacom QPH-031 in Antenna Settings for LNB Freq of 10750 , I get no signal on S and Q and can't scan in any channels. If I change the LNB Freq to 5150 I can see high S and Q signal levels but a Blind Scan does NOT work there either. Do you need a special LNB or Dish to bring in these Satellites with low Tp Frequencies?
 
Satellite TP frequencies with 4 digit numbers are C-band and you will need a C-band lnb along with at least a 6' dish for any reliable reception. Satellite TP frequencies with 5 digit numbers are ku-band and can be received with your Invacom QPH031. Frequencies 11700 to 12200 with the L.O. set to 10750 on the Linear side and frequencies 12200 to 12700 with L.O. set to 11250 on the Circular side.
