At mtbhat, C band is only used by channel broadcasters to broadcast their channels in large areas & across continents. While DTH service is targeted to be used in Small area (or country). This small area transmission can only be achieved by using highly directional satellite beam possible by Ku band, and not by C band as C band have wide beams.
So for DTH you can ONLY use Ku band LNB (and dish).
What you are referring about govt allowing C-band transmission, could be for
HITS, where channels are broadcast over C band, but those signals are not of use for end customers, but to HITS operator who would downlink C-band signals and later send those channels over cable to customers.
I think C Band :hysterical:

Admin, is there any way of blocking smilies for any particular users?
