If so, what size of antenna are you using?
Any channels you're missing?

Yes!! Use a 1.2 meter dish with a bracket to hold the second LNB, then a switch to bring them both together, and you can get Dish Network!!!!
I am doing it in Ejido San Lucas, 30 miles north of Mulege.

Are you using two LNBs to capture the two satellites at 110 and 119? Didn't know you could pull that off with a 1.2 meter antenna...mrchuck - 11-29-2005 at 07:30 AM
I too would like to know this,,,,, that both the satellites 119 and 110 can be received only using one,,, 1.2 meter dish.
Please tell us,,,,thanks,,,,,mccomitan - 11-29-2005 at 08:00 AM

You might take a picture so that people can see how its done.losfrailes - 11-29-2005 at 01:36 PM
Hopefully this pic will fit.turtleandtoad - 11-29-2005 at 01:42 PM
Cool, I didn't know you could do that! Was it hard to get the second LNB positioned right?
Are you using a combiner to merge the two signals or just a switch?losfrailes - 11-29-2005 at 01:50 PM

Wasn't easy! Lots of trial and error. And you use an SW21 to get Dish Net.

I'll be arriving in Mulege in Feb for a 2-3 month stay; anyone in the area have a 1.2 meter dish for sale?BajaRescue - 12-3-2005 at 06:45 AM
OK, back to the original question, I have one "yes" if we count Ejido San Lucas and one "no." Anyone else in Mulege, please speak up?BajaRescue - 3-5-2006 at 06:10 AM

Yes and no. Since I mounted a 32 inch LCD High Def TV in my RV, I needed to get the 110, 119, & 129 satellites all at once.
So I got a new 3 LNB Dish 1000 setup with a tripod mount. It has an oval dish that is close to 1 meter across. I'm in Bahia Kino right now and it's
working here. I'll be heading farther south in a couple of weeks and will let you know when I lose the signal.
Of course that will only prove how far south you can go on the mainland, due to the footprints of the satellites, it will probably be further than you
can go in Baja.
