Now that dish is moving all the internationals to 118.2 and some channels that i watched all already gone, i have to move the dish over to 118.2. here is what i have as setup. I got the new customer setup 4 months ago which include******
Dish 1000.2 looking at 110, 119, 129 and another dish500 looking at 148.
I got 722 and 2 311 receivers. Since 148 will no longer be needed, cause all the international channles on that will move to 118, can i aim that to 118? or can the dish 1000.2 be moved around to get 118, but i need the hd channels on 129 so cant lose that sat either. Wat are my options, pleas let me know thanks

You need a different dish. None of the ones you have can pickup the 118.7 signal. It comes down from the satellite at a different frequency than regular Dish signals. It would be like using your dish to get antenna signals.

since you subscribe to channels that require you to have 118.7, dish should provide the hardware in my opinion. Give them a call and see if they will take care of it.

You need a Dish1000+ and a DPP44 switch
 

ABC OTA not an option

want to wire more rooms.
