The best You can do with that size dish is 4 consecutive birds 10 or less degrees apart.
I would also suggest this is not something for someone new,
not that You are. (as I have no idea how much You know)
So You would be able to get 91,101,110,119.
101 won't really do You any good, as that is a Dave bird.
I'm happy with 91,110,and 119. If You want all 4 of those mentioned,
You will need a bigger dish.
You can also add another dish as brucec77 mentioned.

you can run 110 &119 on charlie dish then on an old dave dish you can run 82 & 91 ,but you have to purchase a lnb bracket . there available on some sponsers of this site possibly or on flea bay (aprox 15.00) keep in mind that you use old dave LNB's .. once you hit 82 on the arm lnb then adjust the other for 91.. i myself was a skeptic on the bracket but it works great!!!!! 82 does not have much mostly HD and forgein ....good luck don't give up when in doubt READ READ READ!!!!!!! tracybuffalo

it is possible to recieve all four sat on one dish. using an 18x24 and quad bracket (119,110,101,91) as labeled. you need to move all lnbs to the left by adding support bracket to the left of 119. the confrigration is now 119.110.space.91.82 with new bracket in place. (82 is bevs HD). you must use a disques switch. port 1 -119.port 2-110.port 3-91.port 4-82. and one out to STB...

use your home coorindates and input them into this satellite locator Satellite look-angle calculator . choose the multidish set up and input the 119, 110, 91, into the satellite look calculator.. as you will see 82 in not needed at this time... take the azimuth, elevation, and skew angle and transferr them to the dish by adjustment provided...

the fine tune setup is easy: *****NOTE**** make all your connections first WITH STB POWER OFF!!!!!!!
disconnect all but port 2- 110 for now, the out line of the disques switch is connected to stb.
tune your stb to recieve 110, port 2and save setting(use setup for your reciever),
move the dish, until the best signal and quality is achieved.

now, ADD EACH PORT ONE BY ONE, make sure you set up each port respectively with your reciever!!! chech each signal and quailty as you go. for best reception signal 65-75, quality 65-90, if you have this THATS GOOD!!

Oh if you are wondering where and when to tune 82, you may not have to, however, 119 may need i bit of tweekin, becuz it is on that prefabricated bracket you installed (it is supposed to be the same distance apart as the others but may need to be moved slightly).

if this is too complicated, it does take time, then a would suggest 2 dish 500 and focus them instead

i got it setup thanks for the help, but what sat can i pick up by putting a linear lnb in the middle? or a cingular if it's worth putting.
