Grit is on G19 but C band. Better start checking Craigslist for a 10 footer!
Dishes are like potato chips,you can't eat just one.

There are certain parameters to follow when going for multi lnbs on a Ku dish.
You will not get any closer than, someone correct me, 4 degrees
and you can not exceed some number of degrees between satellites, 10 or 12 maybe?
It takes some planning. You can motorize the dish too and get all the sats you can see.
I just opted for lots of dishes because I have the land to do it. And I like lots of dishes.
If one dish goes bonkers or hit by a falling tree, I still have TV.
My wife would make me get all the dishes I could. She would motivate me to do more and more,
ending up with the diagram above.
Once you get another dish, it will be another, then another, until finally"
And a switch like this so a single receiver can select between up to four lnbfs:

Or eight:
Get a spare too, it sucks not having spares for testing and troubleshooting.
wow everything is so cheap, its crazy how much they charge for a dish alone when the lnb is like 6 -15 bucks !
My wife kissed me when we finally cut off pay tv and started saving $150 a month.
wow thats nice dan !! i love the DIRECT TV LOGO !!! LOVE IT !! nice work how you made your own multi mount to ! thats a great idea !, what kind of lnbs are on there?? what are the two with the Big gray and blue heads ?????
Cuba does not recognize US copyright laws it seems. You get some pretty recent movies on that bird.
And there is female "talent" on that bird too, of the "your wife may just slap you after all" type.
ill have to keep my eyes out for cheap and throw away dishes , i have seen people throw out Dtv and dish net dishes b4 ... damn if i only knew then what i know now =( i know a few guys in the buy sell trade trade, ill have to let them know to call me for dishes on the cheap ! =P
30W and 95W (one news and one documentary channel) are two good sats for old DISH and DirecTV dishes.
