DOES A STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION GUIDE EXIST THAT I CAN USE TO SET UP MY SYSTEMS (I HAVE TWO HUGHES, SINGLE PRONG AND ONE HUGHES, DUAL PRONGED) SO THAT I GET AAALLLL OF THE TV OUT THERE? WITH THE ONE DUAL PRONG, I HAD THAT ONE INSTALLED AND RUNNING WITH THE BASIC CHANNELS (INCLUDING THE 900'S) BUT NOW I'VE MOVED INTO A NEW HOUSE. I DON'T TRUST ANYBODY TO COME OUT AND INSTALL MY SYSTEM (TOO MANY QUESTIONS!!!) I WANT TO GET THE PARATODOS, NASA, ETC. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP A BROTHER OUT:0)!!!
THANX IN ADVANCE,
B.

I haven't seen any guide like you are asking for, but you can get bits and pieces by using the search engine for various topics.

I suppose we need more info on what you really want.

For example, do you need to know how to mount and aim the antenna? How to run the wiring to the receivers? How to run multiple receivers off a single antenna?

A more detailed question(s) might get more of the information you want.

I REALLY WANT TO DO THIS MYSELF AND IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT COMPLICATED. I JUST NEED A PUSH IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THANX FOR ANY ADVICE YOU MAY HAVE FOR ME. PLEASE BEAR WITH ME AND FORGIVE MY IGNORANCE AT TIMES :0)!!!

Binnovative when you say pronged do you mean LNB? Are your IRD/receivers Plus models what are there model numbers? If you want 119 you will need a plus receiver. Are your dishes eliptical/egg shaped or round?

Thanks,

B,

I sent a rather detailed PM on how to install your system. Run through it and see if anything is unclear. If it helps, you can use it to send to other people who need help.
