Site location for C-band dish

[ozifer]

Hi All,

I think I am going to start looking into settiing up my c-band dish. I have a Ku band dish that hits all the satellites over the us. Should I be ok putting the c-band dish in the same area and still be able to hit the same satellites as the Ku band dish? I want to make sure I am putting it in the right spot as it would be a major project to dig it out and move it :-). I have so far been able to aquire a 8.5' and 10' mesh dish's. My 90c ku dish sits about 1.5 feet off the ground, would I be safe in putting the c-band dish so that it is that close to the ground or should I put it up higher? Any other suggestions please toss out. I am going to go back and read all the threads again I have not read them all since last year when I was wanting to put a c-band dish up.

Thanks for all the help, everyone here is very helpful.

Oz.

putting it in the same area should work just fine as long as the dish is high enough off the ground so it don't make contact should be fine but would recommend raising it high enough to mow around.
