As for the correct TP list of Anik F3 you can find it here http://www.lyngsa*t.com/anikf3.html If your TV and receiver are not in High Definition, there is no need to list these HD TPs. |

Platinum Member Username: NydasPost Number: 10870 Registered: Jun-06 | CB2008A This is the LNB for the new 118W (Anik F3 / 118.7W / 118.8W) satellite. With this special LNB, you can get BOTH 118 and 119 at the same time! Works with both Free-to-Air and Original DN Receivers! Requires: 30-inch or larger dish. 20' oval may work but is unreliable and YOU WILL MISS some channels. Compatible with DirecTV, Free-to-Air (DiSEqC, 22KHz), and legacy switches (SW21, SW44, etc) Not compatible with DishPro switches and/or DishPro (stacked) LNB's SPECS Polarization: Circular Input Frequency: 11.70 - 12.75 GHz LO Frequency: 10.750 GHz Noise: 0.5 dB Dual-output (ready for 1 or 2 receivers). Each output will give you both 118.7W and 119W. SETUP INSTRUCTIONS Using a 30-inch or larger dish, aim with the following settings: Satellite Name: 118A°W (Anik F3) or 119A°W (Echo7) LNB Type: Standard (or Single) LO Frequency: 10750 or 10600 MHz Finally, do an AUTO SCAN or a BLIND SCAN For some the following settings may work better or give you more channels: LNB Type: Universal LO Frequency: 9750 MHz HI Frequency: 11750 MHz ALTERNATIVE SETUP The lnb is good for 118.7, but may not receive all channels/transponders for 119 as the highest frequency of the LNB is 12.2 GHz. The normal 119 LNB goes up to 12.70 GHz. According to lyngsat (http://www.lyngsat*com/packages/dish119.html) the highest transponder frequency in use now is 12.516GHz. You may get around this by doing two scans. One with LNB frequency set at 10750 or even lower and then another scan with LNB frequency set at 11250. alternatively scan each one of the missing transponders of Echo 9 separately using LNB frequency 11250. WHERE TO BUY: You can try ebay , search for Superdish type1 to 500+ repoint kit -part 148328. This contain the LNBs to retrofit the Superdish. If you have a 33" dish (other than Superdish) you can get the CB2008A lnb which will get 118.7 and 119. CB2008A is available at ebay and many other online stores. this is one of the hottest items on the market, so please do not ask '" just Google for it and you will find it. MECHANICAL CONSIDERATIONS: CB2008A cannot directly replace the 119 LNB on the Superdish. Superdish lnb for 119 has a special bracket. If you are good mechanically ,you could probably figure a way to mount it on the Superdish; - it is not impossible. Iit requires a rectangular mount similar to those of DTV. The mount for Dish LNB have one side that is semicircular. If you have a Superdish the best bet it to get the Superdish type1 toDish 500+ repoint kit part#148328. |
