Re: changing dishes
The 110 and 119 LNBs are oddballs on the DTV dishes. 119 is only for the few DTV transponders, and I think the 110 just gets music from a few other transponders. Phase III DTV LNBs have an internal switch which is not compatible with FTA receivers, also. So, all you will get from that dish is one satellite.
If you really need to get both satellites on one dish, I would recommend getting a Dish 500. If you feel you may ever upgrade to High Def, get a Dish 1000.2 The DTv dishes will not work for you in this case, unless you do a modification and replace the LNBs. Hope This Helps !!
