Bell TV in West Virginia?

I get 42 elevation and 204 azimuth...real close. If the installer does it (hope he knows what he's doing) give him those numbers.
42 is how the dish "tilts" up or down to the sky
204 is where in the sky to point. 180 is dead south, 90 dead east....204 is SW
 

you can use an old 10 foot backyard dish if you want. All you'd do is help when it rains (wont drop out as quick)
As noted the 18" or 20" DIsh 500 will be fine in WV for 91W. The larger dish all you'd gain is when it rains (it wont drop out as much)
If you have access to a 24, 30, 36, 40x30, 48 etc thats fine. But I wouldnt go throw $ on a larger dish when it really wont do any good (unless you want it for 82W)
 
Are you saying my cousin should get 42 Elevation and 204 Azimuth for his dish, or are you saying that is what your Elevation and Azimuth is for you dish?

I wouldn't spend too much time/money on this project with Nimiq 6 coming online in fall 2012 @ 91 degrees

The lnb you need is a single lnb and looks like this ...

Iceberg, is a 4ft dish the smallest you can use to fit two standard lnbs next to each other and hit both 107.3 & 111.1?
