Dish Types here...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dish 300
Single slot 18" round DBS dish that can pick up programming from one DBS satellite location at a time. DBS locations for Dish are 61.5�, 110�, 119�, 129�, 148� and (not used) 157�.

Dish 500
A two slot 18" x 20" DBS dish designed to pick up 110� and 119� simultaneously. However it can be used to pick up 119� and 129� or just one satellite location like 61.5� or 148�.

Dish 1000
A three slot DBS dish designed to pick up 110, 119 and 129 simultaneously. This dish can be used to pick up 129� and 148� simultaneously.

Dish 1000.2
Slightly larger than a Dish 1000, its integrated head unit has 3 LNBs (110�, 119� and 129�), an input for a 4th LNB, and DP Plus switching to 3 receiver outputs.

Plus Dish 500+/1000+
Same as the Dish 1000 in function but about 5" larger and can pick up the 118.75� FSS location. As a 500+ it picks up 110�, 118.75� and 119�. Adding an LNB for 129 makes it a 1000+.

SuperDISH
105: Specifically designed to pick up 105, 110 and 119
121: Specifically designed to pick up 110, 119 and 121






118 and 119 LNB combined into 1

You have d*sh 1000. You can get a Repoint Kit from e*---Bay. The lnb looks like an eye. Also, you have to move dish a lil towards left and try to get max signal quality. Rescan channels.

Hi Richie Rich,

So, I don't have to buy Dish 1000+ right ? ... just buy the LNBF and align the Dish ?

Can you please confirm ?

Thanks !
