Dish network and DirecTV on same antenna??

Hi,

I have just moved from Europe to USA. In the condo I moved in there's this "war" going on about all the dishes on the roof. I do have to admit that it's not very nice that every townhouse has 2 or more dishes on the roof.

I was therefore wondering if it's not possible of receiving all DirecTV and Dish network on just one Dish? Probably a T90 or so? And then we could add some FTA channels to there as well?

I tried to find this in the forum but was not successful. Any help greatly appreciated.

ciao,

Cybertoy

I dont live in Europe but I dont see why not . If we can recive a bird such as telstar5 middel eastern satellite from the usa there shouldnt be any problems to receve a bird from europe use a 34" dish and give it a shot.

The original poster said that he is in the US now. Also, Telstar 5 (Intelsat America 5) is not a middle eastern satellite. It is at 97W.
