    WELCOME to the real C-Band club Manny
    I've got 3 of those 6 foot dishes (2 Fortec 1 Sadoun) and they rock.

    So now you shouldnt have any issues getting MetroTV now

    Looks like 40.5W has a ton of circular polarity signals on it
    Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet

    all you need to do is put the dialectic plate down the throat of the LNB to get circular. If you dont have it, I've seen folks use like a credit card to make it work

    If you take the cover off the LNB you'll see 2 sets of grooves on each side. That is where it goes to make it a circular polarity LNB

    Congrats on your new dish it looks nice. Welcome to forum. I started out with a 6' prodelin pointed at G10r @123w to watch TVN ppv, and the outdoor channels. That was a few years ago. I have grown into a 10' sami.

    Your hobby will grow! So will the dish size.
    Have fun and enjoy.

    Manuel, Did you get the unscrambled Televisa Networks mux on 43W? I ve been trying to no availability , well the trees are the culprit probably but wanted to confirm. Like turbosat said , now I want a 10 footer minimum!!!.
