    Dish 1000.2 can only get circular signals. There are a handful of Dish channels that are in the clear
    NASA, Angel One, Ion and some barker channels

    not really worth it IMO. A 30" dish and a dual LNB will allow you to run 2 or more receivers
    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

    I think the dish would be of some small value to someone wanting to subscribe to Dish Network, and get their HD on 129°.
    (as well as main programming on 110/119)

    If I got one for free, I'd probably hold onto it and find a friend to give it to.
    But I wouldn't pay any money to get one.


    Here's
    bit of info on it


    from one of our Gold Sponsors, DishStore
    edit: found dish size on Sadoun's
    site


    :
    19"h x 24"w dish face
    So, not too interesting to try to convert to FTA use.

    I have a number of Superdishes in my array, a little bigger than the 1000. They work OK for stronger TP's if you replace the stock setup with generic linear lnb's. Not the best for those weaker signals.

    You'll be better off with a bigger dish than the 1000.2, DN and Directv can use smaller dishes because circular Ku it's stronger than lineal Ku.

    Maybe you'll be able to pull the stonger transponders but don't expect a lot.

    It all depends where are you located but my advice would be to get a dish at least a meter in diameter.

    Cheers

    Mike
