Bronze Member Username: BanglePost Number: 34 Registered: Jan-08 | as far as i know the dish 1000 has the 119 LNB point to the echo7 and anik bird too. I dont think the DTV dish can do that. |
|
Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 16 Registered: Dec-06 | but can't i just point the dish to 119 and use the DT36EDS lnbs to get 118.7? |

Gold Member Username: KirankumarKenya Post Number: 2009 Registered: Oct-07 | Max if you have the dish then go ahead and give it a try,no harm in that |
|
Gold Member Username: RtapFL Post Number: 1991 Registered: Jan-07 | AFRICAN is right.the way we learn is by trial and error. |
|
Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 17 Registered: Dec-06 | i'm planning on buying this dish but want to make sure i could get 118.7 with this dish. |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 8892 Registered: Jun-06 | Seeing is belieing, and without trying you won't see. In a general way, I can say that the 118.7 signals are weaker than 119, but I don't see why a good 36" dish can't be used though it was designed for something else. Make sure you buy a 118.7/119 specific Universal LNB. |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14328 Registered: Jan-06 | LMAO...that dish is 100% useless for ya, for DN and the 118... |
|
Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 8896 Registered: Jun-06 | The generic $20 Universal LNBs are working well with 30" ordinary dishes. The 36" dish will work too. |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 8899 Registered: Jun-06 | Useless information. The client wants to know if the 36" dish will work if he anted to use a Universal LNB designed for 118/119W and I am saying there is no reason why it should not. |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14332 Registered: Jan-06 | U better learn to read azzhole.. NEVER does he ask that or anything about a universal LNB...just asked if he could use this dish which comes with 101 and 95 LNB's... AGAIN...U provide BOGUS info! |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 8971 Registered: Jun-06 | You will still need the special Universal LNB |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2567 Registered: Oct-06 | That dish and that LNB Should be able to pickup 118.7 Polarity of that LNB is the tricky part But should work It also depends on what receiver yo got And setting correct LNB Voltage and freq I would love to get my hands on that dish and LNB That's a great 36" dish Just change the LNB to get 118.7 if it doesn't pickup Sat If yo didn't buy it yet Buy a super dish much less headache |

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York City in-HD, NY Post Number: 2568 Registered: Oct-06 | Very few dish 500 plus available to buy now days Many people get confused with dish 500 with dishpro plus LNB And for some reason super dish is very cheap now I also noticed DN new installations uses super dish only They still call it dish 500 plus for 110/118/119 And dish 1000 plus for 110/118/119/129 For both cases they install super dish for all new subscribers |

Silver Member Username: MuchoPost Number: 105 Registered: Dec-07 | Justice you say that you can scan both 119 and 118.7/118.8 (Anik F3) at the same time. How can that be? Don't you need to scan one at a time? When I scan Echo 3 @ 61.5 or Rainbow 1 @ 61.5 both at the same orbit,then why do I have to scan each separately? My receiver don't even list Anik F3.I need to enter this birds and the TPs. |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14420 Registered: Jan-06 | To add Anik F3 Antenna Setup A) Scroll to Edit TP/Satellite press (OK) B) Scroll to bottom you will see the word NEW press (OK) C) On this board highlite one character at a time and press (OK) when you finish entering these characters, if it looks like this Anik F3/Ku ..press (OK)should be at the bottom next to del. next you will see this. Down Frequency Symbol Rate Polarity Pull up.....http://www.lyngsat.com/anikf3.html here you will find all the TPs for Anik F3. If you don't have a HD Receiver don't bother entering the TPs outline in green. I will post the first TP for you.

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 8991 Registered: Jun-06 | Any dish that is over 30" wide and can scan 119 WILL scan 118.7 easily with a special Universal LNB. If you wish to learn, LEARN, OTHERWISE KEEP QUIET |

Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 20 Registered: Dec-06 | thanks LK and Nalin but i came to my decision after a conversation with charlie. he told me that i would need at least a 30" dish or larger and a circular lnb, which i will attach with zip ties to the 119 lnb of the superdish. |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9051 Registered: Jun-06 | That is not any different from what I said yesterday. "Any dish that is over 30" wide and can scan 119 WILL scan 118.7 easily with a special Universal LNB. " |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14471 Registered: Jan-06 | Charlie is an idiot if that's what he told you...which I do not beleive 1 word of that.....Charlie knows MUCH better than to tell U to make a poormans dish...while Charlie has a specific Dish 500 PLUS for the 110-118-119...or the Dish 1000 Plus U must think we're all retarded , like nalin... who are U kidding Max? ...aka whoever u really are.. |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9058 Registered: Jun-06 | Max: Charlie knows his Dishes and Sats and LNBs much much better than LK or I do. Happy viewing. If you have problems, address your questions to "Mad Flea" in this forum. |

Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 21 Registered: Dec-06 | LK: do you know who i'm talking about when i'm saying Charlie? i think you're the only retard than from that last comment you made. Charlie is DN. you see this how you manage to piss people off with those wise remarks. |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14476 Registered: Jan-06 | Charlie = Dishnetwork employees ...mostly 18-22 yr old stupid kids working in custommer service...reading off a pre written script Mav.,..U don't want to fuuccck with me kid!..I honestly have forgotten more than U will ever know about satellites and DSS....go play HERO with your lil 14 yr old buds about how u get free TV.. and U made a real BONEHEAD move with that dish...so don't comeback and ask 1 million stupid questions cause U ignored good advice kid.. |
|
Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9069 Registered: Jun-06 | Max Edout : The best thing that can happen to you is LK refusing to help. Then we can get along with real work. You look at what Charlie is suggesting. It will probably be a special kit about $110 to switch from 121 to 118.7 Or you can get the special LNB designed for getting 118.7 and 119. Just Google 118/119 and you will get two or three varieties. Mad Flea here and African will both be able to help you |

Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 14483 Registered: Jan-06 | Max...don't come crying when Nalin and Charlie come with a warrant... |
|
Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9079 Registered: Jun-06 | Don't worry about warrants. The only warrant likely is to arrest LK for her part in ftaprosupport fraud. Just ask Mad Flea what to do. |

Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 22 Registered: Dec-06 | thanks guys. do i really need a special circular lnb to get 118.7, when 110 and 119 are circular? correct me if i'm wrong, but on lyngsat under the first column labeled as "Freq. Tp" "R" = right-hand and "L" = left-hand mean they are circular polarizations. and "V" = vertical and "H" = horizontal mean they are linear polarizations. thanks. |
|
Silver Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 777 Registered: Jan-08 | Max linear is vertical and horizontal circular is left and right This LNB is oval on is width and standard is round, that why it can catch 0.25 degree. |
|
Bronze Member Username: MaxedoutPost Number: 23 Registered: Dec-06 | thanks Plymouth, that explains why i can't use the exisiting lnb off my 61.5 dish or the 119 lnb to catch 118.7. |
|
Silver Member Username: PlymouthQuebec city, Quebec Canada Post Number: 778 Registered: Jan-08 | Max it's 1.25 degree You may use the same like me, but when we scan, we catch channel on 2 sat with bad signal. It's better with |

Gold Member Username: NydasPost Number: 9112 Registered: Jun-06 | Max: There are people who have received 118.7 signals with both Linear and circular LNBs. You get a 4 DB drop., and might miss several channels. The main point is that all of internationals on 121 are moving to 118.7. There is a possibility of 61.5W and 148W internationals being phased out. - No confirmations of this. You might as well do a good job and use a special Universal LNB designed specifically for the 118/119. The LNB is about $18 to $25. With a bit of effort you will get going nicely. Alternatively you can get the full 121 to 118.7 conversion kit for about $110 directly from DN. Either way you will be a winner. |
