Re: prime dish

if you have 110, 119, and 91 already, then i would go for 123 (real FTA). the original lnb on that dish is linear, so make sure you point at a linear sat or change the lnb. if you just like to play around you can mod it to get 119,110, 97 or 105, 91 and 82 all on that dish.

That's definitely my next sat 123W, for FTA, that is. Good choice, good programming.

Re: prime dish

if that lnb has 2 ports one is labeled V and one labeled H you just need to combine then into a switch to pick up both horizontal and vertical tps.
thats a great bird to hit with the old primestar
have fun.
