I have 2 dish 1000's. I had a spare dish\LNB laying around so I installed my second dish underneath my first dish and was able to peak it to 129 by itself. That helped a little. But can I point the dish with the one LNB currently looking at 129 to 61.5? I have no problem seeing 61.5. Would that work? I just have the cable form the 129 LNB\dish running to the dish above it into the built in multi switch.

Thanks

That will work. 61.5 carries the same natl HD programming plust the Demo channel. Many HD Locals are on 129 so consider that before swinging the dish around.

You can get that info from your point dish screen. Just tell it what sat you want to see and what dish you have (D300).
