 180cm (6ft) C/Ku-Band Prime Focus Mesh Satellite Dish

DESCRIPTION

High performance 180cm (6ft) C/Ku-Band polar mount prime focus mesh satellite dish. If you do NOT have room for a larger antenna but still want to dabble in c-band satellite, then this is the perfect dish for you!

This C/Ku-band satellite dish is compact and lightweight. It can be mounted in a backyard patio, apartment balcony or on the side or roof of your house just like a smaller ku-band dish. Forget about using a conical scalar ring to turn your ku-band dish into a c-band dish because it will NOT work! Buy this dish instead and receive both bands!

This dish size will lock approximately 50% of North American c-band satellite broadcasts. In fact, it will receive almost ALL standard definition DVB-S signals and probably 25% of high-definition DVB-S2 signals depending on your location. You will also receive almost all ku-band satellite signals. Luckily, most of the FTA transponders over North America put out a strong signal.

It can be used as a stationary antenna (includes lock down bar) or fully motorized with an actuator (not included) to track multiple satellites. The aesthetic appeal of this mesh dish makes it perfect for urban areas where space is restricted but reliable c/ku-band reception is required.

Note: This is our latest model with heavy-duty mount, superior steel construction, larger arm, and thicker gauge steel for minimal slop. Field proven and reliable or your money back!

Note: Requires 3.0" O.D. mounting pole which is sold separately.

Note: This antenna is intended for residential use.

Note: Well received by home satellite TV enthusiasts. You can find a review of our mesh antennas at Satellite Guys
