    3 dish multiswitch and HD signal

    I have two 36" dishes connected to an old Hughes Para todos multiswitch which allows four inputs from the two LNB's (8mhz and 13mhz). I get 95% signal strength from 101 and 119. I like the reliability of the big dishes and the ease of finding signal. I am thinking to install a third 36" dish for...

    I see that elsewhere in this forum, someone asked about pulling in 95 for Indian content. I have Direct TV with the DRD435 boxes. The box only offers sats 101, 110, and 119. I was not aware that you could pick up other signals from other satellites. How would I pick up 95 or something else...

    I am currently using three RCA DRD435RH receivers, made by Thomson that came with the Direct TV triple LNB package. I find most of the Direct TV standard receivers to be cumbersome and "clunky" to navigate with. I had a hughes Para Todos unit that was more user freindly, with a quick button for...
