ok, please answer me this. I'm using a DN dish, lnb with my pansat 2500a and am watching echo 119.

I wanted foreign programming, and was told about sat 61.5 W which looked like it had something to do with DN...does it? something about lyngsat echo 3... and showed a whole litany of programming from all sorts of regions..

so, can i just use the set up i have, re point my dish and get this sat??? and then get some asian language programming??

:help:help

You can try to re aim your dish. Both sats us the same lnb.

Yes you can get it if you turn the dish to 61.5...but then you lose 119 of course.
Or you could just add another dish & get both 110 & 119 (DN) on one & 61.5 on the other.
There is a lot of international channels on 61.5.
Use the Dish Pointing Tools below to help find it.
