Re: 118.8 with superdish
If you have a real DN Superdish 105/121, you will need a DN Repoint Kit 148328 to receive 118.7W AnikF3. There are other ways to acheive this end, but the repoint kit is the easiest, yet costly ($50-$80 e-bay). The kit includes a bracket for 129W. Caution: do not be misled and aquire the DN147427 Repoint Kit as it will not fit the Superdish.

Re: 118.8 with superdish
i think you could also just replace the lnb on 119 with one that is both circular and linear and the single lnb would get both 118 and 119. if you dont have HD you wont need 129. if you do have HD you will need the 8psk module for it.

Re: 118.8 with superdish
Earlier I mentioned the expensive, but best way to get 118.7W. The cheapest way, but with inconsistent results would be to move the existing FSS Stacked LNB to the center position and insert a piece of di-electric into the feedhorn. The DBS LNB for 119W would be installed where the FSS was, but the position is not ideal.
The CB2008a method would be to totally remove the FSS and DBS Stacked LNBs and to strap the dual-band CB2008a onto the LNB bracket. The LNB can be bought for $10-15 (e-Bay). I bought one of these, but decided the DN Repoint Kit assures optimum results.
