If it's the old Superdish, it receives 110 and 119 and either 105 or 121. Neither 105 nor 121 are used for programming any longer. Install instructions including pointing info:

No. Because of satellite orbital spacing you need a 1000.2 LNB assembly. Also the LNB for 105 or 121 was not a DBS LNB but one for FSS frequencies. The 1000.2 dish and LNB usually run $80-$90 or so from the site sponsors like DishStore and Sadoun or eBay. You also could use the Superdish for 110 and 119 and then another Dish 500 or 300 antenna with a dual or single LNB for 129 with the outputs of all three sat positions fed into a switch. By the time you do all that you might as well get a 1000.2 antenna. It has a built-in switch and can feed up to 3 dual tuner DP receivers.

Just to complicate things, there *IS* a Super Dish 105 repoint kit made by DNS. It's designed for situations (and markets) where a person would want to receive programming from the 129 versus the 105.

Check with Claude at Dishstore.Net (one of this sites sponsors) to see if he has any available.
