New 5 lnb dish

Has anyone started using the new 5 lnb dish with the hd20 reciever? I got hd installed 3 mos ago wit h3 lnb dish and to get local channels you have to use the 5 lvb. I am scheduled to be installed next week. I will follow up.

The new dish is a little bigger than the 3 lnb. It weighs 30 pounds. The locals come in excellent in hd. I had installed near peak of roof because installer was telling me that some of the dishs were pulling off the sides of houses, only because installer did not find studs. the channels that are not hi def come in compressed. We just had up to 60mph winds here other day and dish swayed a little but stayed in its position. This will read 5 sats and as soon as new sats are activated it will respond.
