Question: I have a Direct dish (18" round) with a single LNB pointed at 119 deg. My Pansat 2700a is picking up some chans, but not everything. From reading other posts, I understand that I need to get my hands on a Dish LNB (DP Twin) to see both sats. My question is this, is my Direct dish going to work with this new LNB, or do I need to find one with Dish 500 printered on it? Thanks.

The DTV dish is fine...all it is , is a reflector...strap/tie on another single LNB to the present one aimed at 119..aim it at 110...this is called the poormans dish...do NOT need a TWIN LNB..

Thanks LK for the quick reply. Sounds like good news. A bud of mine just drop off a DP twin to me so I'm headed outside (in the dark) to install it. Am I going to have to realign the dish again? Or should it be right where is needs to be to pick up the 110 sat?
