    again it depends on size the min size would be 1.8M for good selection of sats but even bigger would be better the c band lnbs have also improved over the years i am now using an extended 3.4-4.2 11K max c band lnb

    11 K is quite good for c band lnb as for the corator2 this should work ok on your dish i swap over from c to ku when needed don't use any switches
