I would save that for when you have more experience with FTA and then just use the reflector. I would pair that reflector with this:
Eagle Aspen 270 Dual Output Linear FTA LNBF (2 lot) | eBay

I would start with the GEOSATpro 90cm dish. You can grab that on eBay with LNBF for around a $100.

That lnb would mount up directly with it based on looks thanks will try it sometime do you of a good reciver that is cheap enough like 20-50 or 60 dollars?

I have a question about the lnb being dual lnb does that mean i can have 2 receivers hooked to it and 2 different channels a tv? Just wondering

The Amiko is a very good receiver. If the top end of your budget is $60, I can also recommend the GTMedia V8 Nova (blue model). It has an excellent tuner and is a solid box for less than $50. I'm using it in the bedroom as an extra receiver.

Is there such as a satellite finder that can output to a tv that i can use as a reciver and then can be used as a satellite finder again or is this to expensive im just finding things out

Yes, several models output to a TV. Make sure that the output is HDMI 1080p and not just a composite 480i AV output.

An example is the Dr.HD 1000S+. I often use it as my receiver when camping. :cool:

Ok i will look around
For one

Do you mean you want to use the V8 receiver as your satellite finder? Or are you talking about something different?
