Al and Jim, Yeah, if your system is up an running it is pretty easy to get the circular going. You need just a circular lnb or that
Invacom with dual linear and circular. Rainman is correct that there really isn't anything great to watch except one NASA station. On my 6 ft
Cband dish I can pick up 3 NASA stations. There are a couple adds for Dishnet on circular... but it is useless. My Invacom gat zapped, so I have no circular and have no intention to get it again.
The settings are easy in the MercuryII. For each satellite you will need to designate it one or the other, circular or linear by selecting the frequencies, 10750 is linear and 11250 is circular, and 5100 is C-band. Universal is for universal which is a higher range, I think. See this link where Rainman explained it all to me:

For the type of
diseqc switch to use, I usually see what
Sadoun is selling in one of their kits, and order that one... I have one with five connections, the one in the middle is the feed to the receiver, and then the outside are just sequential 1,2,3, and 4. These are the names you set in the
Mercury II for each satellite. You with have to tell each satellite which LNB feed to use if you go from a single LNB to dual LNB.
good luck
