6' Dish enough for G17 c-band

All depends on the FEC. If they use 3/4 FEC or less, probably will be ok. More FEC, or a DVB-S2 signal, its going to be marginal at best.

check http://www.sadoun.com/ for dishes, etc.

I know one is Fox Business and it shows fec=5/6

Sadoun is where I was looking and noticed their 8' dish was out of stock.

Think you may have problems with 5/6 on a 6', but then again, it is a strong satellite, and a groundstation uplink, so its possible it will work.

I have bought from these people before, and they had good service:

That looks like the ticket thanks and the mount should be easy to mod it for nprm.

I think its been +12 years since since I last worked with cband. The last dishes we used to do were made by Patriot that had a kit for making it a dual lnb setup for g5/c3. I despised those dishes and the hundreds of fasteners it took to assemble the petals.

I have a 6' foot dish and have no problem with G17. It may be the strongest sat out there.
