Is the wire coming off the inside of the lnb suspose to be bent or straight.Cause i noticed mine is bent.Is that why im not getting anywhere in my setup

I installed one of these on my big 12 ft. dish and it is working fine (both C and Ku). It is now 15 ft. up in the air, so I can't look and see what is inside.

I should think something should work.

When I first installed mine, I took my small TV and receiver outside, then connected a cable to just the C LNB and tested that. Then moved the cable to the Ku LNB and tested that.

Be sure your C-band L.O. is set to 5150

and your Ku is set to Universal or L.O. 10.6 and low L.O 9.75

Be sure you are in fact connected to the C-band LNB when testing C-band and in fact connected to the Ku LNB when testing Ku. Here are the instructions and a diagram of which is which...

Then once you get both working and install the jumper wire, set your receiver to diseqc 1.0 and LNB 1 for C and diseqc 1.0 and LNB 2 for Ku.

Also watch it when screwing in and unscrewing coax cable to the LNB's. The connectors on the LNB's will turn if the nuts holding them are not tight. Then if these kept spinning, I suppose the wires inside the LNB would break.

Also there is an arrow on the case near the rear LNB. This should be pointing down.

When I installed mine, I was replacing my old feedhorn and C-band LNB.

What I did was left my big dish pointing at a C/Ku satellite before removing the old feedhorn/LNB - made sure I was receiving a signal.

Then installed the new C/Ku LNBF. Then connected to coax to the Ku LNB and moved the LNBF closer to the dish and further away from the dish and watched the quality signal meter on my TV. Left it where it got the best signal.

Then turned it slightly clockwise and counter-clockwise (skew) to get the best signal. Then tightened the bolts.

I did not have an operational dish when I installed mine but followed the same concept for adjustment. Mine is installed on a fixed dish I set skew with rotation and focal depth the exact same way. I am using mine for circular C Band only. Will be installing another hopefully this summer which will be another fixed dish for C Band from 45. I used the same scalar ring that was on the dish. In the case of my circular install the mounting arms had got bent so I used a flaslight in the scalar ring in the evening to bend tem back so they were pointing at the center of the dish. Worked
