Poor Man's Dish Section

Hi,
Does anyone have pictures of a OFF LIMITS-110-119-121 setup? I am trying to get a bracket to mount the OFF LIMITS and 119 between my 110-121 LNBs.
Any advices is very much appreciated.

It is very hard to fit two LNBs only two degrees apart and still get a usable signal. Since the physical size of an LNB is way too big to permit side by side installation 2 degrees apart you would have to stack them one on top of another and hope to get lucky. Some people use the invacom quad linear/circular lnb to get both 119 (circular) and 121 (linear) from just 1 lnb. 119 is really a strong signal so you could add a small 18" dish just for 119 without much expense or difficulty.

Please tell me whats the dish and lnb requirement for 148? 18 inch will do it? I live in toronto.

Thanks in advance

61.5 is the better "wing" satellite for East Coast people. The channels are pretty much the same on both 61.5 and on 148, so unless there is one very special channel on 148 that is not on 61.5 you would be better off with a little 18" DSS (Circular LNB) dish on 61.5.

Yes, you are right. I've tried and it's almost impossible to locate the 119 between the 121 and 110. and also the signal is not very usable I believe. Do you think I can catch the OFF LIMITS though?

Thanks.

Davisz, be careful. You are not allowed to mention "that" bird.

Is it possible to mount 2 lnbs to get both 129 and 121? would it be a similar set up to the 110 and 119... One more question... would it be worth it, or are the channels to similar

thnx
