Once you get Nimiq 1 (91) with a DP-TWIN Pro LNB you should be able to get Nimiq 2 (82). Here in Chicago I use a skew of 89 degrees and elevation of 41 to get both satellites. Once I know I'm getting a signal on Nimiq 1. Nimiq 2 is there right next to it.

patekir1 don't know your location but in southwest USA never been able to get 82 on Dish 500 twin. 91 comes in OK but had to use 33" to get 82. B4 you go to a lot of effort BV will be on N3 very soon. Good luck

I am all the way down in Central Texas and on a DP301 I get 91 at about 60% (on the new scale for 301's) and 82 at about 50% on a regular Dish500.

The real trick is to isolate the LNB "window" of 82 by blocking it with some cardboard. Aim your dish using only the 119 (91) "window". Peak it really good (you might even have to loosen the skew and dial it in a little better). After you have gotten the *BEST* possiblt signal that you can, tighten everything down and remove the cardboard. 82 should be already peaked out.
