Simple question....what do you have for your FTA setup dish wise? Always like to see what people have

-C-Band only (fixed or motorized)
-Fixed KU Band only (one or multiple dishes)
-motorized KU only
-Fixed C-Band dish and fixed KU Band dish
-Fixed C-Band dish and motorized KU Band dish
-Motorized C-Band dish and fixed KU Band dish
-Motorized C-Band dish and motorized KU Band dish
-all in one dish (C & KU on one dish)
-multiple of above (motorized and a fixed KU dish as example)

I know some of us have a separate pizza pan dish for say 119 but lets not include those. Lets stick with the C & KU FTA ;)

Also if you vote, could you please respond at the bottom so we know :)
 
multiple of above
-2 fixed C-Band dishes
-4 fixed KU dishes
-1 motorized KU dish :)
 
I selected C-band (motorized) only, but after this weekend (hopefully) I will be changing that to "Motorized C-Band dish and fixed KU Band dish". I poured a 5 gallon bucket full of Quikrete and set a pole in it yesterday, tomorrow I begin the search for G10R Ku.
 
I have upgraded/downgraded/sidegraded/etc. I am down to 7 various combos of motorized and stationary C-Band only, ku-band only, and c/ku combo dishes (which will probably change weekly as good weather hits!)
 
For 20 years I've had the BUD and lately I've been using it for scanning for HD FTA with my Pansat 9200. Moving it with my Uniden Ultra. Fixed Primestar dish for G10R(TN) for the 2700. The Prodelin dish parked on AMC18 4DTV for now.
 
I have one motorized Ku dish and two fixed Ku dishes (G10R due to LOS and AMC1 for the odd skew). Hoping to add a few C-Band dishes to the mix soon. :)
 
one motorized Ku
various fixed Ku dishes and parts and one large Ku I'm hoping to use for C-band
and the dish network stuff for the wife's "real tv"
 
multiple... multiple..... multiple....... assortment of dishes
2 @ actuator driven BUD's (one primarily used for 4dtv, but capable of FTA)
2 @ USAL's driven ku dishes for FTA
2 @ DISH 500 for Dish Network HD only (one @ 61.5, the other @ 110/119)
Primestar 1m for FTA @ 123/129
Torodial T90 for FTA @ 72/74/87/89/93/97/101/103 (I change these fairly often)
These are currently in use, I have others not currently being used....
 
I have one motorized 90cm KU that I will soon be moving off the roof so I can get to it when the winds mess with it. I also just finished setting up my 2nd 90cm fixed KU dish for G10, G27 and 119 for NASA all to one receiver the Fortec Mercury. Makes a great combo.
