getting 118.7

[alhelo]

hello,
I want to install a dish to receive channels on 118.7 but I am not sure how to do it since it seems it is on a different polarity system. could i buy a new lnb like this

ebay item # 150299569902


Or an lnb on ebay that says it gets 118.7 & 119


and just put it on my existing dish pointing at 119 and actually expect to get both 118.7 and 119? it seems a little fishy to me.

Thanks

118.7 can only be picked up by the DISH 500 plus or the 1000plus dishes they are larger to pickup the satellite DISH is using. Easiest cure is call DISH for a free upgrade so you can receive the international channels.

That LNB will not do what you want. The 118 is a FSS bird and needs a different LNB to pick it up. Boba is correct, you need a dish 500/1000 plus dish to get this or there are superdish repoint kits though Ive never used one.
