118 will have to be a 31" dish and liner LNB or:

The best set up for FTA is a 31" dish, Motor, and proper lnb for DBS ( dn-bev ) and true FTA.....

Their are 31 sat's out their with programing on them with over 2500 channels you can get with a clear sky and that set up......

Cost is around $150 and set up is very easey most times easer than all the switching required with using 2 dishes to just get a few sat's..

you use a liner LNB but, set it up like a circular LNB and it will get the channels.....

Requirements:
- At least a 28" dish
- Universal Circular LNB or Invacom Quad Polarity
(Linear LNB may not work 100%) but might get yo few TPs

Procedure: (all from lyngsat-com)
- Create a new Satellite call it Anik F3
- Add a TP manually:
** TP: 11715
** Pol: V
** S/R: 20000
** FEC: 7/8

- Yo can add each TP manually or do Blind scan and it will automatically update all Tp
- Set LNB to Universal settings
- Do Channel Sat Scan

Yo can always delete satelite if no longer needed
I NEVER TRIED IT
So do at your own risk
I gave yo all required steps
I'm almost certain it should work
