    Dish 1000.4 out west

    yes you can use the 1000.4 dish to receive 110, 119, 129 BUT you have to use a different lnb. the eastern arc dish for 61.5, 72, 77 use a different lnb, it has 2 lnbs next to each other while the 77 is further away . the one you need, it has 3 lnbs evenly spaced apart. hope this helps!!
