D-Network satellite 119 and 110 questions for an 18wheeler install

Hello all!....

This will be my first post here as I am trying to figure out some much needed info for acquiring a satellite TV signal from an install project in my 18-wheeler.

I already have a dish-network account and have an extra receiver to be used and it will only cost $7 extra each month for the receiver to be added to my account.

Questions...

1: I only have the base programming without HD......Will i only need to find satellite 119 for all those channels? or will I also need to dial in 110?

2: If I use a dish that has two "eyes"...one for 119 and one for 110... Can I utilize the 119 side only and point it to 119? And how do you know which one of the two "eyes" are the 119?

3: Is there an easy way to find the sat 119 each time I stop the truck?....just the AZ and EL for the zip code I'm in?....Is this easy to do from the sat strength menu on the receiver?

Sorry for all the dumb questions.....with all the info about sat stuff on the net it is easy to get confused with details not pertaining to my situation.....thanks in advance for any help given!

might practice scolding football by providing special techniques. In order to obtain the difficult instruction, you have to put on some professional equipment in case to get hurt. Just about all well-known football gamers acquired the actual platinum eagle through defeating their misuse or even sanctions.

1. Stations come off of both the 119 and 110. If you bring in one you will only get about half your channels.

2. You can utilize only the 119 if it has two eyes once pointed correctly, you may have to run a check switch to verify signals though.

3. The easiest way to find out the angles would be to go to dishpointer.com. You can enter your info and it will show you the angles to point your dish.
