Hope you ordered a Ku LNB without the "F".

When you get to setting up the satellite positions, don't forget to setup all the Ku birds, including IA 7, Horizons 1 and EchoStar 9. You never know what will be in the clear. Right now Wausau, WI along with the UPN from Albany, NY are in the clear on E*9 tp 32 and many of the new Chinese channels are in the clear on E*9 Tp 31. What appears to be a Philipino mux is on Horizons 1. Some sports show up on IA 7, both analog and Mpeg2.

Not much of the season left, but the Orioles OTA network is on IA 7 C band 3933 Mpeg2 clear.

It comes with a .6db KU . What does "F" mean?

LNBFs have a (F)eedhorn built in. These are used on your DBS dishes and the Ku-FSS dish you used in your Poor Mans Superdish setup.
