di*h to b*v with dave dual lnb sat

[Cozmo]

i hope i'm using the correct section.. i could not find a di*h to b*v area to post in.. i have a dave di*h on the roof it has the dual lnb is it possible to utilize it to recieve b*l.. even if i only get one sat either 91 or 82. its just to test sLaShErs nk1.1.3. i've read clydsdales sticky... any additional info on switching woulld be appreciated plenty out there from b*v to di*h but not vise-versa. thanks

Hello Cozmo,
Yes it's it will work. But to able to elaborate more on the matter at hand, we would need to receiver a little more info ie: what receiver.
My setup pulls from the 110/119/91 bird's that consist of such:
1- 18' old D*vie d*sh
3- old D*vie dual lnb's <sw21 switch for 110/119 to a 301-010/Atmega><DiSEqC 4*1 switch for 110/119/91 to dvb-pci/emu sc.

you could use the information right from the section you started your thread, just reverse the process....................Happy Testing

i' sorry Ag i shouldve been more clear on what i intend to use which is
1-301.10 single tsop with di*h net firmware
2-d*ve di*h, with dual lnb's with internal switch( instead of the sw21)( only NEED one signal)

software and process i think i should use is as follows::
1-point d*ve di*h at sat 91 and scew to recieve 82(i'd be happy with one)( i need azmuths and angles for these) once i have a good signal
2-using jkeys erase proper sector of tsop(sa3)
3-put into stream and wait for update(up to 30 min) when complete it should have b*v firmware
4- if that fails then find a 3100 tsop image at et then jtag erase and program with 3100 tsop image, put in stream and let it update if necessary.
5-worse case cenerio said 301.10 gets ruined, used as a doorstop
6-invade my ird stash and try again. LOL;
7- test nk1.1.3
with that being said, if i'm close, than all i need is to make sure i'm finding the correct sat(sats) and get the azmuith elevations and angles for them. so what do ya think Ag?? did i miss any inportant info and can you point me to the azmuith,elevation amd angles (skew) i need?? thanks

It may or may not work it all depends on d*ve lnb. The original d*ve lnbs are legacy style but d*ve does some funky things with lnbs and switches. Your best bet is to give it a shot and try it out. I think the duals should work but I bet it is for 101 and 119 so you will only get one b*v bird likely. But I don't really know d*ve stuff very well. It is best to avoid unless you get it for free. I'm guessing though as a dual lnb you got a 90% chance it work for just one bird.

thanks cuat,,well 90% isnt bad, i agree with you on staying away from dave but its already bolted down i just need to aim it. didnt cost me a nickle,, can you point me to the angle, elevation, for b*v 91 sat?? thanks for your help

Bev 91 is at 91 degrees :)

I like the sat calculator on the kusat.com website.

of course there is plenty of other sat calculators to you can use google to find a different one if you want.

I usually use the kusat one and then just google 'my city latitude' and the coordinates for my location pop right up.
