Detailed Description

Stores the information of a LNBf.

Parameters: name long name of the LNBf type
alias short name for the LNBf type

The LNBf (low-noise block downconverter) is a type of amplifier that is installed inside the parabolic dishes. It converts the antenna signal to an Intermediate Frequency. Several Ku-band LNBf have more than one IF. The lower IF is stored at lowfreq, the higher IF at highfreq. The exact setup for those structs actually depend on the model of the LNBf, and its usage.
