Having a hard time finding a universal lnb. If I get a chance I will be installing another bud for the circular Atlantic sats with a wideband corotor. With this type of feed I will need seperate lnb's and most of the one's I see advertised on NA sites are all linear, no point in setting up this type of feed unless my ku lnb is universal as most sats are on this part of the arc. Here's a pic of the feed, which I've had several times, that I'll be using:

Ku Satellite (in Montreal) has a dual output universal LNB on their website. I have used them in the past, with good service.

No switches in this type of feed just a servo motor to switch between polarities.

part No, 31244 gain.65 db Typ
input; 3.7- 4.2 GHz Noise; 35K

Much appreciated IQ but that wouldn't work for me and I am still undecided if I'm going to through with this install.
