guys I have a elliptical dish, but my lnb for 118/119 is not the ones with the square base to slot in the most common brackets, anyway to modify so I can use my existing 118/119 Bracket?

basically right now I am trying to accomplish this... currently have a 33" dish, with special bracket holding lnb for 97w and another LNb for 118/119. there is two receivers in the house, on upstairs one down. there is two cable lines coming in the house, one for receiver upstairs and one for downstairs. I need to have upstairs for FTA only capturing 97 west at all times, and down stairs will be on a motorized system w/ a invacom LNB to be able to move to sats 82,91,97,110,119, and well require 118 so I will need a switch to be able to get 118 for downstairs. using a Viewsat Ultra upstairs, and Kbox downstairs. I think I will require two dishes, we have two 33" dishes, but would prefer to go to one dish or at least a smaller dish for the second one, so it doesn't look to redneckish in the backyard. lol. Any suggestions?

Just throw a couple of old rusty broken down lawn tractors, a few 2x4"s and 4x4"s, some plywood scraps and an old Ford or Chevy on blocks, half a boat, maybe an old dog house or two in the back yard and don't worry about the redneck look.:lolpound::lolpound::lolpound::lolpound:The extra stuff on the dish, or a third dish will blend right in....

If the 118/119 LNB has a second output then just run a coax over to your switch that's after your motor on the motorized system (it may need to be a Diseqc 4x1) and do it that way.
