Hello I'm a newbie I just bought a VSpro FTA, is it possible to use big dish to get 110,118.7 and 119 sat? and How to set it up. Do I need to load new bin also? Thank you.

yeah just look for a 30 inch dish with a 119/118.7 and another circular lnb or get a dish500+
they have a few of the lnb 119/118.7 so i would look at site sponsors
or get a dish500+

Thank you fordman01, I have a BUD 7.5' c/ku lnb dish, I haven't use it for a long time most of the channel went digital and 4tdv receiver is to expensive. Should I buy a 30" dish to get me going? or I can use my Big Ugly Dish. Thanks.

[fordman01]

yeah a big dish can get almost anything cband/kuband linear and circular with the right stuff on it and a fta receiver

That means I don't have to buy a new dish. Which satellite should I position my Dish to get to get 110, 118.7 and 119 should I use the disec switch that comes with the receiver? I apologized for too many questions, but I really need help on this. Thank you very much.

[fordman01]

if you have a 7.5 foot dish just get a motor with a good lnb and just move it to get anything you wanna get

what kind of lnb do you have???

[coolgrass]

I think it's a Chapparal c/ku corotor II plus Feedhorn and receive linear c/ku band signals with norsat dual c/ku lnb.

[fordman01]

The Corotor II Plus receives linear C-Band signals in the 3.7-4.2GHz range and linear Ku-Band signals in the 11.7-12.7GHz range. The Corotor II Plus Wideband is for receptions of circular and linear C-Band signals in the 3.4-4.2GHz range and linear Ku-Band signals in the 10.95-12.75GHz range. The Corotor II Plus Wideband features a new low loss dielectric plate. The new dielectric plate provides a lower noise temperature and improved cross polarization.

Thank you, I will try if I can find those satellites.
