For Library Teleconferences

A College of DuPage teleconference is a satellite-delivered live teleconference broadcast on C-band, analog signal (not digital). The satellite signal is not available on KU-band.

A "C-Band" satellite system suitable for downlinking College of DuPage satellite programs should consist of a motorized antenna 7.5 ft or larger, a 25° PLL LNB or lower and an analog C-Band receiver/antenna controller such as a Motorola "4DTV" DSR922 or similar model.

Note: Galaxy 25 was formerly known as INTELSAT AMERICAS 5 and TELSTAR 5.

Satellite coordinates and a URL for the webcast information will be e-mailed to registered site approximately 1 week before each teleconference. Call (800) 354-6587 (800-3 LINKUP) for more information.
