    How did you get them down to $29 on the flex pack? Right now i have it for $35 plus fees. I'm in contract until June. I did take advantage of Homeland pack for $3 so it's not too bad for $38 total i get GSN and other stuff line OWN and Hallmark. Sent from my LGLS665 using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Thank you and the awesome news is i didn't even have to change my ELEV or SKEW settings on the dish. Just had to move it slightly sw. This means it's probably a very good likelihood that i can at least get 95w and 97w at the same time with 2 lnbfs. Would love to get the 103w with nbc and nhk...

    Awesome thank you this helps a lot. I have great news, i came home from work today and adjusted my tripod ever so slightly from 95w to where i thought 97w was and the very first try i got 150 channels. Some were coming in beautifully and others were coming in a few seconds and dropping because...

    Thanks.. People have to be careful with this though because the one app i was using actually was telling me the sat i was trying to hit was further s. east than it actually was. I'm not sure if it was my gps that was off or the calculation for az... As an example dishpointer.com was saying az...

    True south.

    I can vouge that dishpointer.com is awesome. Take advantage of dragging the green point to where your dish is and selecting whichever sat you're trying to hit. This site gave me a perfect landmark and i hit two sats this past weekend for first time ever!! Sent from my LGLS665 using the...

    Whoa i really need to read up on this then. By offset do you mean that the lnb are held out in front? I think i also need to understand how the fact that my dish 36EDS is elliptical and how that affects things. I know it's still about 36" wide but the height is only like 21/24" so it's...

    Thanks that is some good information. Luckily for me I live in a very rural area where there are probably 10,000 trees for every 1 person :) However unlucky for me trees are a lot taller than people haha Sent from my LGLS665 using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Oh i don't plan to do it anytime soon but it's giving me ideas on how to set it up for longer term expansion. I currently can get 91w and 95w (i confirmed this morning i still got CGTN on 95w during steady rain! Also was listening to some of the sat radio channels on that satellite). My next...

    Are you saying that you are able to pull in c band channels on this 1.2m dish?? That might be something i look into further down the road since would be better for me to have a smaller dish than a bud where i am located. Plus id be ok with having it relatively fixed location for the dish since...

    Thanks!! Still trying to get the lingo.. i thought that's what you meant since i know the receiver can turn on/off lnb which basically means sending power down the rg6 cable line Sent from my LGLS665 using the SatelliteGuys app!

    So sounds like my dish Network switches I have are probably useless then?? I didn't get a switch with the 36EDS when i got it. What are some good and not so expensive switches to get then? Or can i look for anything that is diseqc syntax/compatible? Sent from my LGLS665 using the SatelliteGuys...

    I had a dish 500 before the 1000.2 and it was in my garage until last summer. Now I'm kind of wishing i kept it lol but it went to the recycle yard. O well.. i don't think i could use a BUD here because of all the trees. But I'd be happy tuning into galaxy 3 (cctv/cgtn) and galaxy 19(if i...

    It seems to work ok so far.. until today i was slightly skeptical about it because my previous two attempts i wasn't getting anything out of it (although when i had it connected to the dish Network 1000.2 dish it was pulling in echostar sats but they eye scrambled for obvious reasons). I also...

    Thanks for the pictures on your setup for the lnb/lnbfs!! Im going to have to come up with some custom setup if i want to use multiple lnbs. Just curious what kind of switch do you use?

    Any chance you can take some closeups of how you setup your lnb holders?? Looks like you are using hose clamps to hold them in place?? I'm going to try to do something similar to add my universal lnb that i bought to pull in 2 satellites at the same time. I like it that you can add more...

    Great news to report today!! I hit pay dirt with my 36EDS direct tv world view. My first success was galaxy 17 at 91degrees. I was able to get 9 channels. Then my next success was Galaxy 3 at 95 degrees. I was able to get about 9 channels here as well. This confirms that the 95 eagle aspen...

    It is funny you say that about pointing it at the ground because I kind of did that by accident when I was adjusting the elevation and the harness it was on dropped to make the dish point down. I did notice that the signal strength was still high so I was kind of baffled by it. I tried 2...

    1000.2 25" dish is elipictal :( I ended up buying a DirecTv World Dish 36" elliptical for $40 (including the lnbfs - I have read the 95lnbf is a linear one and might work as-is) because I have heard it can get in 95w (Galaxy 3c) and 97w (Galaxy 19) by other people. I set it up yesterday on a...

    No signal.

    I'm really new to this fta too but i noticed when trying to tune in to sats over n America with a x2 universal lnb that when my receiver setting for lnb was off i would get no signal. When it was turned to on , 13v or18v i would get signal. Maybe verify that your receiver is sending power to...

    Finally for 4 the receiver came preset with usa accessible sats and i didn't see an easy way to add/adjust the corresponding tp settings that lyngsat was showing.

    For 3) and 8) For now i ended up buying the dishnet 36EDS because it was cheap so i don't have to worry about that 30" winegard. I am concerned though that you say i need a proper lnbf to handle the oval shape of the 36EDS (world view) dish?? It seems like the x2 universal linear lnb i bought...
