I've heard that the satellite feeds for the MTN (the Mountain West Sports network) are not encoded and can be viewed on C-Band. I'm trying to find out which satellite that would be. Anyone able to help?
 
I am not trying to be not-helpful :(,

but we usually don't talk about feeds in public.
I know you only want the satellite name, but I am not sure if the moderators want that public.

I am sure if the moderators wish to they will reply.
 
Maybe the forum is not the place for this question, but what's the difference between Ku band and C band? Anything I can read to help me understand and therefore use the satellite dish and receivers I have access to? Thanks for the replies so far!
 
From what I can think of right now:

C-Band:
  • Requires a larger dish than Ku band (1.2 Meters and above).
  • Lower frequency (3GHz to 5GHz)
  • Not effected by rain.
Ku-Band:
  • Smaller dish than C band (1.2 Meters and below).
  • Higher frequency (10GHz to 13GHz)
  • Effected by rain.
 
I have 2 receivers connected to a 12' dish. I think somehow I can get both C-band and Ku-band from the same satellite. I just toggle back and forth between the receiver with the TV input. The receivers are a 4DTV DSR-922 and a DSR-4200 MPEG-2/DigiCipher II.
