Hello ALL,

Need some advice I'm planning to get PAS9 from Los Angeles and I was wondering what dish to use in the photos attached 2623 is a 30inch dish
2625 is a 40 but the bottom is cracked I don't know is it's still can be used?

What universal LNB can I use? dose the freq need to be 10.7? I wanted to get one from sadoun any Ideas...:D

Thanks Konjo

You mean the top is cracked? What are you interested in on PAS9?
 
Hey the Cuban what to see the Island and get Cubavisión Internacional :up
 
I hope you have a clear view of the horizon as PAS9 is about a 15 degree look angle from your location.
 
digiblur,

Got a pretty good shot I'm up on a hill. So what do you think about the cracked dish ? Today is trash day, Do i put it out?
 
that crack wont make much of a difference :)

Yes you will need a Universal. Any Universal will work (has to be able to receive from 10.7-11.7 for sure. Most Universals are 10.7-12.75)
 
THANKS for the help guys:D


I'm going to place my order now maybe by the weekend I'll have my U lnb

I think Pas 9 is an eastern sea board sat ? If so , I doubt you can get it from LA . My chart shows Rainbow 1 as the futherest east from LA at 61.5 West & an elevation of 18.6 degrees .

If you did get it , the elevation would be lower than that , I think . You would need to be on flat ground or looking down hill would be better , with no trees or buildings for quite a ways . Or get your dish up higher ?


As far as the dish is concerned , I would try to pull it back into shape & glue it from the back .

I reside in the Los Angeles area (part time, dual homes) and I can confirm that you can simply use a 30" dish at Pas9 for Cubavision amigo. You dont need to go with a 40", but bigger is always better.

Those dishes you have posted look kinda heavy and i would suggest getting a much lighter one, if you need a local source for 30" dishes with no shipping involved shoot me a PM and i can suggest a few local sellers that have excellent prices on 30" dish and lnb combos.

Hope that helps

Konjo , Coño ?

Both dishes look good, even the cracked one with a little repair looks like a good stationary dish for Pas 9.

Do you plan on motorizing your setup ?
