Where can someone purchase a LNB satellite?
LNB satellite dishes are used for telecommunications. The LNB stands for low noise block and it is the part of the dish that collects the lowest frequencies. Your satellite TV distributor should be able to help you get hold of one.
What device modulates outgoing signals and demodulates incoming signals?
To receive a Satellite signal, you need a LNB which is attached to your satellite dish--The LNB and dish is determined by which satellite TV service you have--either Dish Network or DirecTV. The satellite dish is pointed in a particular direction to pick up the correct satellite orbiting the sky. You will also need a satellite receiver, which is "wired" to the LNB and also is attached to your television.
Can you use a dishnet pro 500 satellite dish and L and B for tunning in a direct tv signal?
No, you are not able to use the LNB from DISH Network and receive dtv signal. Our receivers and LNB decode the signal to bring the picture to your TV.
Will a 3 LNB Direct TV dish work with a Dish Network receiver?
No, there is a receiver in between. An LNB is a 'Low Noise Block'. The 'block' refers to a block of frequencies (not a magic box). It is a low noise amplifier and converter. It changes the microwaves from the satellite signal, to a different, lower frequency that the satellite receiver can handle. A voltage is usually put on the coax from the satellite box. This selects whether the polarized signal received by the LNB, is horizontal or vertical.
How can make sat dish?
The best form of dish is a Parabolic Dish - This captures the digital signal and because of its concave form bounces the signal to an LNB ( stands for Low Noise Block) and it is the receiving end of a satellite dish. The LNB must be pointing directly to the satellite overhead in orbit to receive the strongest and clearest signal. As with a normal TV antenna, it may be required for you to adjust the LNB in order to receive the highest quality (strongest and clearest) satellite signals available
What is LNB related to telecom?
Low noise block-downconverter.A low noise block-downconverter (or LNB) is the receiving device of a parabolic satellite dish antenna of the type commonly used for satellite TV reception. The device is sometimes called an LNA (for low noise amplifier), LNC (for low noise converter) or even LND (for low noise downconverter) but as block-downconversion is the principal function of the device, LNB is the preferred term, although this acronym is often incorrectly expanded to the incomplete descriptions, low noise block or low noise block converter.
Can you use a directv dish with a dishnetwork receiver?
Just to clarify on the answers given. The LNBs are different for DISH Network and DTV along with the receivers. The LNB and receiver takes the signal from the satellite and gives you your signal on your TV. As stated, you can't use different receivers and LNB from different companies. The dish outside does not matter, just the LNB and receiver. Simply, no. The satellite dishes use different switching schemes internally for accessing the satellite transponders. Bull....loney. I'm using an old 18" DirecTv dish to receive signals from a Dishnetworks satellite at 119W. The satellite receivers will be different because different signalling protocols are used.
What is the purpose of multiswitches?
The purpose of a multiswitch is to allow several receivers accept a TV signal from a single satellite LNB. The are also known as splitters because they "split" the signal.
What does LNB stand for on a satellite system?
Answer: A satellite dish is a parabolic antenna designed to receive microwave signals from communications satellites, which transmit data transmissions or broadcasts, such as satellite television. In home based systems, the parabolic shape of a dish reflects these signals to the dish's focal point. Mounted on brackets at the dish's focal point is a device called a feedhorn. The feedhorn is essentially the front-end of a waveguide that gathers the signals at or near the focal point and 'conducts' them to a low-noise blockdown converter or LNB. The LNB converts the signals from electromagnetic or radio waves to electrical signals and shifts the signals from the downlinked C-band (older generation of satellite signals requiring 10 to 12 foot dish diameters) or Ku-band (current generation of satellite signals requiring 10 to 12 inch dish diameters) to the L-band range. Direct broadcast satellite dishes use an LNBF, which integrates the feedhorn with the LNB.
Can you use a different companies satellite dish to receive your companies signal?
Short answer is for the most part no. Each satellite TV company picks up different orbitals using the LNB on your satellite Dish in order to receive your programming; these orbitals can vary depending on what programming package you choose and where you live.

Why is a satellite dish round?
Each satellite TV dish can be a different shape depending on what provider you have. Dish Network satellites are more round -- the reason they are round is to get the best possible signal using the LNB (a device attached to the dish) and the specific curvature of the dish; since all TV, Cable and satellite providers use some form of satellite to get your programming each dish is a slightly different shape depending upon what satellite they are pointing to in the sky.
