with one dish you can pick up 1- all sats out there depending on the hardware you use one dish with 2 lnbs using a bracket can be done a dish with a bracket that holds 10 lnbs can be done same dish one lnb with a motor can be done possibilities are endless id suggest reading up in the dish and lnb section to make a choice whats best for you

give this a read and yes you can get this stuff all over the net delivered to your door or there may even be a place in your area that you can pick this stuff up as for what sats theres to many to list for that it would be best to check out lyngsat for that or go into your dish settings go to satellite hit ok and read the list of all sats there so read this link and you will understand a little bit more http://www.fortecfiles.com/dishes-ln...at-motors.html (Viewsat and motors)

You can find as many sats as you want...Depends on how many LNB's your useing....... And Swithches.......

The number of sats you can pick up is unlimited........Depends on your situation and location and how many Dishes you have......

Need more info to know your situation.........

Many FTA users are very happy just to have three satellite locations.

Bev at 91 degrees and Charlie at the 110 and 119 degree positions.
You have Bev now so you just need the other two satellite positions. If you have the space you can point one dish to each satellite or work with the brackets available. The cable from the three LNB's go into a DisEQc switch and then on to your receiver.

Please do some reading as it does help. Here is a drawing that may help. Click on it a few times to enlarge.

start with one sat and dial that one in and get it set then check the others. then you do micro adjustments to dial it all in together. can be a slow process, but if you get the first the others should almost be there. just move bit by bit until you get the strongest signal and quality on all three at one time
