Hi,
I'm having fun with my FTA setup, though given the layout of my place (the forest) I'm only able to get satelliltes between about 75 and 105 degrees. I'm not able to get Galaxy 13/Horizon 1 nor some of the lower lying satellites around 35-50 degrees.
I'm going to have a pro come in and reinstall the dish as I did it just sufficient to "get by" but it got me thinking--I have an old Dishnetwork dish in the garage doing nothing, and an extra FTA LNB. I also have a 4-1 Diseq switch. Could I rig the Dish Network up on the roof pointing at one of the birds I can't get with my motorized setup (i.e the Dish Network dish would shoot over the trees).
Can you use an old Dish Network dish for some FTA, or is it better to use just as a bird bath?
