As an update, I finally decided to take down the 90cm antenna since I'm not able to use it with this receiver, and I put up another DN500 dual LNB antenna in its place. Easy install, it seems to be already tweeked (skewed) correctly, and I just downloaded the channels off of Echostar 5 and 9 satellites. Just one more to go to get the HD satellite that used to be VOOM! Of course this receiver will probably not like switching between birds and it'll be a pain, but now I've got that middle eastern and other alternative content I was looking for.

Awesome. Nice Job! The thing with mine is that I don't have a motor, cause I heard that motors sometimes are unreliable. Sol I just have 3 dishes on the roof, one for each satellite. Since it's on a apartment building, it's practically invisible!

Also I don't have the PVR, but I would really like it! I don't have HD, but that would really rock to get an HD receiver cause I have a 40" Sony Bravia HDTV biggrin.gif
