Is T5 all that I am gonna get?

Just got a Fortec Ultra. Honestly, not much different from my BEC receiver so far. Is there anyway to get any of the listed satellites without moving the dish?. Any domestic feeds?

If your dish is pointed to T5 (IA5) than that is all you are going to get without moving your dish. There are rarely any feeds on it's Ku side, but sometimes they do show up.

OK, but how many channels should I expect? After scanning I got about 85. Is this about right? There isn't much variety though. They seem to be either Middle Eastern or Asian.

Check out lyngsat: http://www.lyngsat.com/ia5.html you can see if you have all the channel on Ku. Ku freq is 5 digits.
