i think best would be using a motor dish..
as we are seeing more and more channels are moving from one location to another... so motor dish would be best way to go.. |

you can get 110.119 and 118.7 on one dish which must be at least 30" and 2 lnbs 1 for 110 and the other for 119 and 118.7 ( this is a special lnb about $20)
you will need a second regular dish for 148 with single lnb |

The easiest, most practical and esthetic benefic way would be to go with a Toroidal 90 and the required LNBs (C/Ku band). I have it and I'm super happy with 91, 97, 110 & 119. I'm looking to add 118.7 and wonder if I can stretch it for 148 (They say you have a 40 degree span for birds but I heard of others stretching 50 degree +. I tried the thing with the motor, but it's totally unreliable, hard to setup and the wait time going through channels on different birds is forever. My 2 cents. |

Dual will get you 2 output to connect 2 receivers not more channels. Think of a longterm and get dual. |

"Dual will get you 2 output to connect 2 receivers not more channels. Think of a longterm and get dual."
Vittu, I tend to (partially) disagree with you; A dual LNB can get you more channels: A Circular Standard Dual output LNBF with Dual polarization can get you Echostar 7 (Dishnetwork 119°W) and Anik-F3 (at 118.8°W) in addition to hook up 2 receivers, therefore: more channels. |

Dual LNB = 1 sat and two receivers
Twin LNB = 2 sats and one receiver (often used with 110/119W or 82/91W)
Dual twin = 2 sats and 2 receivers.
"Dual output LNBF with Dual polarization" Universal LNB is specific version of a dual twin designed for 118.7W and 119W |

A Fortec dish 30" 33" 36" with hh-90 motor and INVACOM universal LNB QPH031. Good for Echostar 3,6,7,8,9,10(1,2 in mid and coast west), Nimiq 1,2,3, AMC 3,4 , Intelsat 5,7,8. This is the best for have max channels, but you may listen 2 receiver on the same satellite only. I have a second dish 20 inch with motor and circular LNB for my wife. |
