Al, please post your question on satelliteguys.us on the DN section – lots of helpful people there. I’m over the pond here and not too familiar with the receivers and dishes in North America.

Alan,
I just recently purchased a Dish Network TurboHD dish 1000.4. The instructions given were to connect to the left hand connector,pole # 1. When doing the dish pointing menu there weren’t any reading given for the aziuth,elev&skew. There were three dishes available on the menu, 500,300& super dish. Setting300 would given two readings,but not the skew setting. Confused. The skew setting we got for Pa. was 86. We are now in Florida. I went to DishNetwork web site and they only showed co-ordinates for Dish 500 & 300. How do I go about getting the necessary info when using TurboHD dish1000.4.

I have purchased a motor and dual LNB (Circular and linear) I am trying to locate true FTA satellite4s EG 97W but I am having major problems in aiming the dish to locate the proper arc and the LNB settings for the various satellites. Any help that you can give will be appreciated.

Just got back from Los Angeles to Toronto with a Direct Tv reciever which it is an additional box from my brother’s existing plan in Los Angeles. I already activiated back in LA. Please advise what is the best way to set this up in my Toronto Area?
I currently have a 18×24 dish pointing to 110 and 119 with a switcher which I previously used it for dishnetwork.

Please advise if I can use this dish to setup my direct tv box?
note: I’ve tried to set it up on the DT reciever but no luck of finding any signal.

Please help….
