Antenna, LNBs and Motor for PanSat2500A

[TecMan45]

Hi Sadoun:

I would like to place an order for the following items:

Fortec Star 120CM Dish 150.00
STAB HH120 Motor 149.00
FS Universal 0.4db Single KU LNBF FSKU-v 35.00 (for Ku-Band Sats)
M20R Wave Frontier Dual lnbf 39.00 (for 110 and 119 Dish)
Fortec Star LNBF Holder Black 10.00

just need your support...I want to be sure if those items will works with my PanSat2005A in Monterrey, Mexico

Thanks

TecMan

I'm not from Sadoun but I can pretty much tell you that the WaveFrontier dual M20R dual LNBF isn't going to work with the dish you are buying. Those WaveFrontier circular LNBFs are only going to work with the toroidal antennas that have 2 reflector surfaces.

Every time a circularly polarized signal bounces off a surface, the polarization changes. A standard dish has the signal bounce once, so the right-hand signals become left-hand signals before the LNBF sees them. With the WaveFrontier toroidal dishes, the right-hand signals bounce off the reflector and then the subreflector before hitting the LNBF. Thus the right-hand signal is again right-hand when it is received. Consequently, the voltage-selected polarization on the WaveFrontier LNBF is reversed from your "standard" Dish or DirecTV LNBF.

If you're getting a FortecStar dish for Dish, you need to get a standard dual output circular LNBF.

Very well stated and you are absolutely correct. :wink:

Nice spelling and grammar too !!!

I can confirm the STAB motor will indeed work. Got two of them myself and am very happy with them. They work great in both USALS and 1.2 mode with the Pansats. However, the 2100 mtors didn't work for crap on the Pansat. Not sure if that's been fixed yet though...
Also, not sure if Sadoun sells them but most Dishnetwork LNBs will work fine for circular signals.
