If you want to watch programms from more than satellites(For in instance from Astra and from Hot Bird) it is advisable to use fixed dishes and a DiSEqC 1.0 switch. Have your botech Dealer aim the dishes at the requested satellites and connect the LNB's with coax cables to the IN connectors of the DiSEqC 1.0 switch. Connect the OUT connector of the DiSEqC 1.0 switch to the LNB IN connector at the back of your receiver.
