hello I am about to setup a new primestar 36”x 26” oval dish system am using a direct triple phase now and it sucks along with a pansat 2700 reciever my goal is to lock onto echo 8.6,7,and nimiq 1 so I have been reading a lot the primestar seems to be well recieved by people but the LNB's is what I am having trouble on I am thinking Invacom seems good, if someone could give my a little advice on LNB's and or switch's needed to make this happen I would appreciate the help thanks. |

I don't know much about primestar (aren't they defunct?), but without a toroid dish i doubt you'll be able to hit the two echos as well as nimiq from one dish. |

true the toroid is a sick dish but also expensive too, I trying to do this in a cost effective way I was thing the primestar pan to is big enough to catch the signals and some good lnbs should work out I seen this on another site and thought it would be doable or if anyone else has any good setups please share thanks
