Preparing for the Cross Polarization Test
The BUC LO frequency is read from the options file on your satellite Router. Using these values,
iSite automatically calculates the L-band TX frequency.
The BUC LO frequency will typically show a value of 13050 MHz for Ku band and 4900 for C band.
These values are read from the options file on your Satellite Router. Using the RF Uplink and BUC
LO frequencies, iSite automatically generates an L-band frequency for the Satellite Router.

The satellite provider will then ask to have the azimuth, polarization, and/or elevation adjusted.
The polarization is usually adjusted first. If the correct isolation cannot be achieved, then the
operator may ask to adjust the azimuth and/or elevation.
