How do I determine what satellites I will need to "see" to get Dish network? I know my local HDs are on 129*. So I assume I would be using the 110/119/129 setup, is this correct? I live in Pelham, GA. Its in southwest Georgia. I will subscribe to either the 200 or 250 programing packages with a 722k. I was hoping to avoid the 129 sat as its about 30 deg. up and I have a lot of pine trees around me.
 
yes that is correct. To get your locals in HD they are on the 129 satellite

The issue is your SD locals are on 110 so they would have to set you up with a 110/119/129 dish..... I dont know if they would do a Eastern Arc dish if you have a line of site issue because your locals are not on those sats (61.5/72/77)
 
Thanks for the reply, thats what I thought. I don't really care if I get the SD locals or not, as long as I have the HDs. I will also be using an OTA to double up on HD locals.
