Get yourself a Dish 1000. It gets the 110-119 and 129. Its made for those 3 sats. |

- Best choice will be dish 1000 with 3-lnbs
- Second choice an old DTV phase-II for 110&129 and add an LNB in the middle for 119 and possibly 118/119
- Third choice will be DTV dish phase III
However yo'll get 110/129 and limited TPs on 119 (TPs 14 to 21 only) |

with the dish 1000 ... are you able to go directly to the rcvr from the lnb and set diseqc accordingly? or do you need a switch in between...thanks again |

Yo'll need a switch to connect 3 LNBs
In many cases if yo purchase Dish 1000 from e-bay yo might be able to get it with DP34 or DP44
A generic DISEqC switch can work too |

Yor welcome
In yor case if yo don't care about 118 International
1000.2 dish will work for 110/119/129
But won't work for 118
Yo can probably get 100.2 dish cheap
Switch is not a big deal usually $5
But if yo want 118 International with that dish it's a big deal yo might have to replace all 3 LNBs cuz 1000.2 got all 3 LNBs mounted together can't seperate |

thanks again...looking for the 110119129 but have read the 1000.2 has had some power issues that the 1000 does not...so i started looking for the basic 1000 but if that's not the case, then i can roll with the 1000.2, basically a strength/quality issue i guess |
