    on the 4DTV? There is no KU left on the 4DTV that I know of

    You would need a FTA reciever for KU
    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
    Two 6 foot Fortec dish with GeoSatPro dual C-Band LNB "ghetto moved" to various C-Band satellites

    Thanks for the reply
    Would a Strong SRT-1100 work?

    KU

    I use my 920 for a dish mover on KU. As mentioned above have a DVB HD receiver connected to LNB with a DC block going to DVB. Love PBS etc on KU band. A regular DVB is not good because it has no AC3 sound out. Services on C and KU use it only. Do not stop with a 4DTV receiver as services are changing over from 4DTV to DVB.
