110 & 119 on 1.8m Dish
|
New member Username: DefenderPost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-07 | Guys, I am living in the caribbean and we normally have to use the 1.8m Dish to get perfect signal but it will only pickup one satellite at a time. So, for instance, if I need 110, I will have to move the dish and if I need 119, I will have to move the dish again. So I was wondering if I can there is a way I can use some special arm to get both sat at the same time. I purchase the 1.8m arm but it didnt work. Maybe somebody has a mod that will. Thank |

Silver Member Username: JuanchoSuperior Lake, Northwestern... Canada Post Number: 723 Registered: Dec-06 | tony. use the adapted LNB for the 119, as the 110 has more Tps ,it Lnb has to be the primary. | |

Silver Member Username: TapemanPost Number: 658 Registered: Oct-06 | If you use this kind of LNB you don't need a DISEqC switch In fact one wire from either outlet to one or 2 receivers This kind is friendly to all receivers  |
