Katrina attacks my BUD

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.video.satellite.mpeg-dvb (More info?)

My neighbors Oak tree shed a large limb during Katrina and knocked
the whole feed horn assembly into next yard. When I do get back to
New Orleans, I wanted to replace the old C-Band only feed horn with
one that would pick up regular analog KU as well a have a built-in DVB
pickup. I seem to remember seeing mention here that someone makes an
"all in one" feedhorn assembly that will receive it all. Can anyone
steer me in the right direction? I already have the receivers, just
thought it would be nice to have the one big dish to pick up all the
satellites.

No hurry, it will be weeks before we can even think about repairs.

If you're talking about C/Ku/DBS here's one offered by Skyvision:

http/www.skyvision.com/store/mi3500024.html

My shopping suggests that Skyvision tends to be a little high price
wise, so you might be able to do better somewhere else.

Take care,
Rich

God bless the USA

You probably mean DBS feed. DVB is on regular C and Ku as well as DBS.
