Slimline dish help

[sushiboy829]

hello people! i got a question about the slimline dish and my directv receiver. will i be able to use a slimline dish (which from what i understand is a 5 lnb dish) with my receiver that can only be set up with a 3 lnb dish? any help will be great!


thanks!

I had a HR10-250, SDDVR40 and Sony 300 all hooked up with the 5LNB dish when they first came out without any problems, just pretent you still have only the 3LNB on the settings.

I agree with rad.

will the elevation and all that stuff be the same?

I don't believe so. If you give me your zip code, I can give you the numbers you need to install from what my receiver says.

cool my zip is 77070

Tilt 80 degrees
