Wondering if my DP500 Dish will pick up 61.5

[jmcgee_jr]

I bought a house that has a DP 500 Dish with a DISHTWIN LNB and I have one on MY Apartment now too. My ? is can I take the one from the APT and aim it at the 61.5 orbital and pick it up? I know i need a DP34 switch too but im talking about aiming only

Yes you can.

Yes you can.

Ok...do I just aim it normally or is there somehting I have too look out for since its made for 119 orbital and the 110?

Without jumping to BobaBird's link, the most important thing to do is cover the 110 "eye" with foil so you (and the boxes) don't get confused when aiming.
