    Possible to use a GBOX

    Is there anyway possible to use a Powertech GBOX dish postioner with a Dish network box? I am getting tired of rain fade and would like to go to a larger, moveable dish if possible. I tried searching but found nothing. Thanks.

    Can I use Superdish

    Maybe thats what I should do. I have the switch 2, 30" dishes and a 31" dish just sitting. I just need the LNB's. Thanks for the responses.

    Can I use Superdish

    The 1000.2 is small to me. I just thought the larger dish would help when it's stormy out. I never had any rain fade with my Cband dish. Even in worst storm. I have high signals in 90's with the 1000.2 in case you was wondering.

    Need info

    Hi......Been awhile since I have been here. Maybe someone can move this to proper place....I can't figure it out. What I'd like to ask is....A few years ago I installed a 30" dish with an Invacom LNB for my Dish Service to try and defeat rain fade. It helped but didn't eliminate it, I guess...
