well we started out with 2 dish networks, one is aimed at echostar at 148 deg for local channels,and the other at 121 deg. then i added my 36 inch ariza fta dish with motor that went passed the limits and bent the bracket and hurt the motor,hey it was my first motorized dish. then i added an 8 ft unimesh dish. she was like hey are you finished? well i had taken the fta dish out since i broken the motor,well i found a 40 inch primestar and put it up. we now have tons of channels and in the living room we have three different cables ran to the fta receiver and then my c band ran to the bedroom. all i need now is a 4dtv and i will have it all. i would love to put a paraclipse up with a c and ku band feedhorn and run it to the living room,but i suppose it wont be worth a fight with my wife for what 20 more channels than i have now. last check we had a total of around 1400 channels, i still have alot of ku sats to find with the primestar.i have only found 7 or 8 ku sats so far as it isnt motorized.
