SATELLITES THAT CARRY Ka BAND - 
Ka BAND LNBS / BANDS  / FOOTPRINTS & DISH SIZES

There is a growing use in the satellite industry of the frequencies above Ku & K band called Ka band. Many of the rules are very similar to Ku band reception except Ka band spans a much bigger range & suffers higher rain fade. This wider range is being increasingly used by different broadcasters for broadcast feeds/ data / internet & dth  tv etc.. as better techniques are being developed to improve rain fade and signal focus. A single, affordable LNB to cover the whole range is not yet readily available and may not be for some time if ever but we have some more affordable solutions.

May require additional equipment bbc/ 27kHz or manual switching / circular or linear manual change, 
/ external frequency 
reference. Losses/ snr may be higher at frequency extremes & may require larger reflector for 
parity. 9e Ka beams cannot be received 
too far outside thier designated footprints regardless of the use of extra large 
antennae due to the adjacent footprint's re-us
e of the same frequencies blocking effects.
