How many dishes would I need. if I had a motor (I know a heavy duty one) on that dish. Can I use just 1 dish. If i go big dish with a positioner,do i still need a bunch of smaller dishes also. (At some point I also want to get c band) If I need more than 1 dish. How maney would I need to get all birds. What is the best LNb. I read that I can use the primestar with a DTV 3x4 box( I have one around) if I use 1 dish how maney LNB's do I need on it and what kind. If I use a big dish. I know I need a c/ku feedhorn. But will an older one work. or would I have to buy a new one. I have a few DTV dishes around with LNB's. Can i use them for anything. The LNB's I mean. Do I need a positioner? With the right receiver, Will that move the dish? I understand this 90, 101 110 thing from my dtv dish. but how does that work with fta? If i got a multi lnb adapter for my dish. how will that help me. (With dish motor) I know some of these are basic questions. I was hopping someone might point me in the right direction. Thanks guys.
