Thanks again. I am going to go with the setup I have in place rather than change it to the 1000.X. Thanks to the other folks that contributed. I very much appreciate it.

Point made. Thanks.

I currently have 110 and 119 aimed at the Dish 500 and 129 aimed at the 30 inch Wineguard dish. The switching box is also in. The setup I had when I left Dish in 2008 is still in place including new RG6 from the switch box to the location of the 2008 dish stb's. Is my setup better or worse...

I live in Seattle and my thoughts are the extra signal strenth I might get would eliminate some of the rain fade I get. You said the stock dish was fine and I accept that. My question was... "is this the best setup I could have?" Thanks for replying.

I am considering returning to Dish Network. I left due to the wobbly satellite on 129 in 2008. I have a 30 inch dish aimed at 129 and a Dish 500 aimed at 110 and 119. I have no problem installing a 30 inch dish to replace the Dish 500 and would even consider putting up a 36 inch to replace...

Thank you. The link was perfect. FYI: I emailed Dish today with the same quesiton and was told all the channels are in HD even when it doesn't look like it on the HD only packages. The answer was important to me and I appreciate the timely response.

Are all 22 channels in the $10 Platinum package broadcast in HD?
