Lincoln, NE uses both Eastern Arc (61.5°) and Western Arc (129° & 110°) for its local TV stations, so you'll be able to use your 500 dish which should pick up 110°.
thanks for the help. I took the dish out, mounted it temporarily, hooked up a 311 receiver and checked out the switch and then positioned it. worked fine. now I will test the vip211 to morrow. chas
