Re: Superdish 121
Don't need to change anything Buddy. The 1000.2 super dish is all you need to get 110, 119, and 129. The SV-8000 HD will work great with this setup...

Re: Superdish 121
If you have the super dish with a tripple eye LNB, you probably already have the 1000.2 LNB. Heres what it looks like...

No. You need Repoint kit to change your dish to Dish1000+(110,118,119,129)

Re: Superdish 121
The differences between the two options are as following:
Dish 1000+ if used with 2 to 4 receivers, requires a DP34 switch for 3 sat locations, or a DP44 switch for all 4 sat locations. For only one receiver, a 4x1 diseqc switch will do.
Dish 1000.2 can feed up to 3 receivers - no switches.
