As far as I know, it shouldn't matter whether the actual transmission feed
is on C-band or Ku-band. The Low Noise Block (LNB) which sits on the dish
will downconvert it to L-band for the input to the card. Unless the nessus
has a different input requirement.

Of course, you must have a correct LNB which functions at C-band for it to
receive on C-band.
