yes here is a link to the website very informative , you have to make sure about the lnb type and dish setup as some will require a large dish and universal lnb.

Re: GOOLY's DISH SETUP
Gooly what's up man? I would point that other dish to Dik. That way you get both Dik and Bev if one goes down. Don't know about that European FTA stuff though. Sounds like this forum brought out the tester in you. Good for you.

Re: GOOLY's DISH SETUP
No Gooly I ain't playing you. I'm just happy to see how far you've come in 2 short weeks. Many people could learn from you, because not once did you complain. You're up on the roof in freezing temperature working and playing. That's awesome. DIK is the other name for the Charlie provider.
We miss you here when you don't keep us up to date. Things are boring when all is well.

Re: GOOLY's DISH SETUP
gooly you are still on the north American continent, and the only birds in your reach are between the 61.5W to 148W range. Here is link to those birds if you wanna check out the channel line up:
North & South America - LyngSat
Packages - North & South America - LyngSat
And here is a good link to what kind of LNB is required for the popular birds.
Keep in mind that the birds that require a Linear LNB require a 30+inch dish, and since you are way up north I would consider getting even bigger maybe like 39inch.
http://www.abadss.com/forum/29-lnb-d...lite-list.html
Glad you considering to look up some other birds, this is what this hobby is all about. 
*Seriously consider Galaxy 10 @ 123W, with big dish and liner LNB, this is great bird to have as a back up if both DN and BEV go down, has many true FTA channels and excellent programming and most importantly it never goes down.
http://www.abadss.com/forum/91-fta-n...r-get-hit.html
And as always it's nice to hear from you, and I am glad you doing alright.

You are probably better off with charlie on the new dish, usually one is up. By the way what are your latitude and longitude coordinates, not exact of course. I would like to see approximately where u live with google earth. I'm sure others would like to know as well. Sounds mighty coooooooold.
