Questions on aiming a DISH 500 with PLUS LNBs

[lmac]

Hi, I am going to attempt to install a DISH 500 with Plus LNBs at a cabin. I have a few questions:

1. THere are 3 terminals on the LNB, marked 1, 2, and, "line in". Can I use any or must I use certain ones to get the 110 and 119?

2. With skew set, it is difficult to know where the dish is actually pointing. What, from the rear, do I look at to determine AZ? Do I use the vertical gap where the dish mount is attached to the mast?

3. If I can't see the 110 or 119, can I use the 65, 71 or whatever with the existing equipment? Receiver is an old D11.

4. Will DISH require me to sign for another 2 yrs if I add this receiver. It is paid up so should activate without problems.

Please note that I DO NOT want to bring one of the receivers from my home. I don't care about HD at the cabin.

Thanks in advance.

What is a D11 Directv made a model D11 but it is not compatible with DISH.

1. 1 or 2 not In
2. yes, the mounting bracket is the azimuth direction
3. The EA satellites 77 and 72.7 need newer receivers.
4. probably not
