I have a 119w question
Hey guys I dont know if this is possible as I am new to fta, but is it possible to receive all the 110w channels by just pointing to 119w and just adding transponders, if it is possible somebody please tell me how, as I cant point to 119w and 110w because I live in a apartment. All help will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

There is no reason why you cant pick up both 110 and 119 on one lnb. You find 119 first than set your squew for the 110. The dish pro lnb is the best for this, it has built in switchs.

Re: I have a 119w question
if you can only mount one 18" single in your apt complex you can dial in 119 mark the dish and then align to 110 and mark it that way tou can swing back and forth between them as you see fit and mount in a place that is easy to get to.
