LNB questions

[deadstick]

How do I find out if my LNB is single or universal? Which of these numbers on the box indicate the frequency of the LNB?

 

[Mr Tony]

On the LNB it might say universal

Otherwise it may say frequency range
11.7-12.2 standard
10.7-12.2 universal

is there a model number on it?

 

[deadstick]

On the box it says coolsat cs-lnbc. Also on the box, Ku-Band LNBF. On the side of the box is: rf:11070/12.20GHz
IF:950/14540MHz
LO:11.25GHz
Bain:60dB
Noise Figure:0.6dB

On my receiver, I have in motorized settings a place to enter LNB type (single, universal,OCS) and a place to enter LNB Freq.

I LIKE the 60dB Bain value

Sounds like a DBS LNB, great you will be able to keep upto date with NASA and watch soccer on GOL TV.

 

[deadstick]

in my case it is more correct than you think!

So, what do I put in for the LNB values?

does it say rf: 11700-12200?

that would be a standard with a LO frequency of 10750

 

[deadstick]

By standard do you mean single? My choices are single, universal, and ocs.

 

[Mr Tony]

yes single

Are you sure its a KU band LNB or a DBS lNB?

 

[deadstick]

It says Ku-Band on the box and coolsat ku-lnbf on the lnb itself.

 

[Mr Tony]

then its KU band

single & Lo frequency 10750

Thanks! That worked. Now on to the motor. I love a good mystery! That's all for this thread, so thanks again!
