Re: Directv dish doing the trick
Channels keep bouncing around. So if you get about 700 channels from 110 and 119 then you should be ok.

Re: Directv dish doing the trick
Not bad then, 110 is usually worth just over 400 and 119 is right around 300.

Re: Directv dish doing the trick
You will not be able to receive all the transponders on 119 using the Phase III triple LNB. It will be close but not complete.
