Re: can I receive 129W and 148W at the same time
148 will be space junk this year sometime and if you live on the west coast you can get 148. use dishuser.org or lyngsat.com to check out whats on 148. Most of the internationals are moving to 118.7 You would need a seperate lnb to get 148. For each fixed satellite you need a seperate lnb unless you use a motorized dish. If your on the east coast 148 is nearly impossible to get. 61.5 and 148 used to mirror internationals but that has changed since HD. Do a little homework before you start and it will make things easier for you. You cannot get 129 and 148 from the same dish position. You would need to use another lnb pointed at 148 and use a switch to combine the sats to get them to work at the same time.

hotrodhairy, To obtain 110/118.7/119/129/148 will require a Motorized Dish set-up. One Dish, one LNB will do them all..... ease your pain....
