Hi,
I'm looking to get a Dish from mill and the Coolsat 5000 Platinum FTA Receiver, will this dish work for dishnet, "33'' Offset Ku Band Satellite Universal Dish with Dual Linear 10750 LNB"
I have the Bev Dish up and running already, I live in canada.

Will this work for DishNet http://dssftp.com/xcart/product.php?productid=48&cat=13&page=1


Thanks

KU band 12.5 GHZ 38.5db gain!! Wow talk about no more rain fade!!
It will work but dish uses 2 main sats 110 and 119 for the full programming, You would get only half unless you add a second LNB or second dish.

You might want to verify the LNB setup. Dish and Bev use circular polarization, and your LNB would be Ku linear. You could add a circular LNB next to the linear LNB, but that's part of the fun. Most people merely tiewrap them next to the existing LNB and verify good signal strength. You might get lucky by mounting circular LNB's on both sides of the linear, but you're trying to pick up two satellites 9 degrees apart. Might be a lot of tweaking.
