Re: Should I Move my Dish?
Why not get another dish and have both?

if it only takes a minute to move your dish move it. I moved mine last night.

Its always good to have back up plans. just when you set it to 110w. just mark the dish with a marker on your current alignment.

Re: Should I Move my Dish?

Thank you

no you do not have to change much except the dish pointing. the bins work for both bev and dn. Your not using a diseqc switch. just copy the same settings you have for nimiq 1 91w. both are standard lnb types. both are 12224 tp frequency. lnb power on. all that fun stuff.
use this guide to help you. where it says orbital position change it to 110w. that way you get all the ppv.

of course you can, you would need a disrqc switch, pretty cheap to buy. when you get it and you have both dishes aligned you'll get both. put one wire from bev lnb to diseqc port 1 and the wire from DN lnb to diseqc port 2 and you'll get both as long as you have a signal for both. when you set up the sats in your menu on the receiver make sure the diseqc tab is correct number.
