Arabic Channels on Echostar 9
I would like to subscribe to arabic package on Echostar 9 (121W).
I have an FTA dish Satellite that I bought from Sadoun 4 years ago. I am wondering if I can use it for Echostar 9. It's 30" with Universal Linear lnb. |

You can use the dish fine. The LNBF may not work because it is a universal. You will need a linear LNBF.
Do you have a legacy receiver or a DISHPRO receiver?

with linear?

Yes, thanks Darkman. 121 and 105 require a linear LNBF (FSS).

Yes, you are right. You will need a STANDARD KU lnbf.

Yep Sadoun was right. How dare I question my teacher...
Just another question... Does a universal lnbf cover the frequency
range that a standard lnbf receives? I mean if you have a universal
lnbf, you would be able to receive all the channels of a standard lnbf,
plus some additional ones?
Thanks in advance for any replies.

Fortec star dish works very good for echo9 @ 121. However you'll need a standard linear lnb. The fortec star universal lnb will no work. Also some dishnetwork receivers do not have the 121 satellite programmed. You might need to call dishnetwork to upgrade the software.
