    T-90 Setup

    Ok, got Echostar 7 , that's close to the center of the LNB rack, it I'm astonished, it looks as if the dish is pointing at the ground but the signal is strong and reception is really good, not many free channels though, I'll keep the cable tv for now. As I want to get 8 satelites, I'll make sure...

    T-90 Elevation angle

    I'm not sure on how to set the elevation angle on the T90, I set it to 28 degrees, but, it's kind of looking down, like its shaking its head in shame at my feable setup skills! Where is the 0 degree horizontal plane, there's no markings for elevation, I need some kind of reference point to...

    Quad LNB

    Invacom LNB Would the Invacom work, my understanding is ,the LNB needs to be Linear, the Invacom has two linear and two circular, would these be compatible with the T-90 dish? I like your solution, seems very simple, I'm new to FTA and have wasted money, this part of the setup is critical...

I'm new to this, if you have time and could...

    Quad LNB

    Ok, have my T90 dish, now, if I use quad LNB's (5), would this not be one way of getting one RG6 cable to each reciever(3)? I assume, with 4 RG6 hook-ups on each LNB, would allow me to run 1 RG6 cable to each reciever with the proper switches ect. Is this just a brain fart, or, can this be...

    4 LNB ito 1

    4 LNB into 1 I have to decide if I'm going to order the T90 dish or just a round 35" motorized dish, the t90 seems like it's going to be a wiring nightmare to all the recievers but if I can figure a way of cabling it, that may be the way to go, I'll be doing lots of research on the cabling...

    Ok, that's what I want, some who will cut right to the chase, Like I said I don't have much experience! I had T55 tech support email me the satelites I could pick up, the number was 4, so, what your telling me is, my reception will be very poor to no-existant. Sounds like I should have bought...
