Will a Dish TurboHD work the same as a Super Dish?

[Blue Crystal]

After reading the thread about the Super Dish I looked in my pile of stuff and found a Dish Turbo HD, dish.
I'm wondering if that may possibly work the same as the Super Dish or is it too small.

it's smaller than a SuperDish but may still get some results. The trick will be mounting LNBs on it

Yeah it looked like that could be a challenge.
Thanks

you might get some of the real strong transponders but dont expect much

Very Easy!! I am Using that baby for 123West and get 75 quality on all channels
This superdish (36" oval) performs better then 75 inches round dish for fta
Works for me even on rainy days.Location NY City.
Here some picks

I love that LNB bracket, sathen.
I am going experimenting.
Thanks

Not Sure if U understand .This is SUPERDISH (the old one) New Turbo is 1000.4 series and is a way smaller then superdish.
Iceberg is RIGHT.On the one YOU wanted to experiment with don't expect the same result as mine.
Tryed that way and on a clear day. Had up to 50 quality.It is not enough but still gives you some pleasure of getting a signal and experience that you going to need if U series about our game.
Good Luck!!

I think I misunderstood. The Turbo HD is much smaller than your super dish. It's about an inch and a half less than 30 inches. That's with trying to fudge as much as I could.

I believe the TurboHD dish is only 20 or 21" in the vertical dimension so it will probably perform like the Dish 500 that I use for FTA. I have used that on 30w for the Cuban networks, 72w for the NBC mux, 83w for RTV mux, 95w for CCTV and 101w for pentagon channel all with success. The dish can be used on some other weaker satellites during perfect weather.

It would be smart to order the LNB bracket combo like sathen used off of ebay as they are now down to $10 shipped for the pair.
