I would like to know if it is possible to use a C-Band satellite receiver and a be3v dish to receive C-Band signals

You'd have to get a dish at least 4 feet in diameter and with a different LNB... Dish diameter depends on wavelength but also distance (azimut) to satellite and transponder signal strength as well.

So the short answer is: No with dick and bev dish and LNB, you'd have to get a larger dish with appropriate LNB. Fortec dish combos in that size are about $150 or so.

With that setup, your existing FTA should be able to pick C-band. So for the receiver the short answer is: yes, it will work.

The size of Dish depends on your location
and the satellite you want.

Hey Hawk
He is asking is it possible to use a be3v dish?
Simple answer is no!
The foot prints yo got all depends on geographical location as well as orbital location

This is the link yo need:
http://lyngsat-maps.com/america.html

- Select orbital location:
- Select desired C or Ku off that orbital location
- Map will display Max and Min dish size
- Yo take average for correct dish size
- Keep in mind Min gets yo 50%, Max gets yo 100%, average dish size will be about 75% with clear sky view

This is an example for Orbit. Loc. 103W

I learned all from King-Tapeman
God bless yo king for teaching me foot prints
And fixing my yo yo
