Sat 105 and 121 "ARE" KU band lnb's. Sat 110 and 119 are "NOT" KU. So, if you dont have a dual feed horn (and you wont) that can have both (105 and 110) or (121 and 119) lnbs, then "NO you cant use a dish 500. See picture.

Left-121 Middle-119 Right-110

121 and 119 are so close together the must share same feedhorn
Same with 110-105

One more picture. 18" dish and super dish.

My best signal for KU 121 is 75%. But ku band rainfades at 30%.
Same for 105.

So I fudged up and bought a 105 setup, and actually JUST figured out that I needed a 121 setup. :cry: You know of anyplace that I could purchase JUST the 121 feedhorn assembly??

If not possible, is there a way to combine 105, 110, 119, and 121 altogether with another dish and more switches?
