I'm about to purchase a S2 dual lnb fortec classic system and wanted to find out if I should spend the extra $10 to upgrade to a standard dual lnb? The system comes with a universal lnb. Is there any difference between the two? I'm just a newbie coming from directv and want the easiest setup possible. I've heard many say to get a standard since the universal emits a different tone or something? Can anyone provide me with some feedback if I need to get the standard dual lnb or not? Thanks.

So will there be any issues if I just use the universal one or should I opt for the standard? Anything different in regards to setup of the sat signals between the universal and standard?

if you are using fortec receiver it should default to universal lnb. if not just set lnb to universal in setup page and set lo freq to i think 9750 and hi to 10600. should wok find.
