Pickibng up DirecTV' 119 satellite? which method would be better (1 Viewer)

[James L White]

• Multi-dish

or

• A second dish with this one used excusively to "see" the 119 sat

I don't think anything's on the 110 sat that I'll need to pick up (it's all HD(I don't have an HD set and won't for a long time) and foreigh language channels, right? Also will I need anything besides the dish, the mounting equipment and a multi-switch? In other words will I have to upgrade my receiver too, if so where's a good place to upgrade(I'd love to have DirecTV interactive)I like my current Sony receiver, I find the guide and all the features to be easier to use than the Hughes or RCA models.


other suggestions are welcome

I'm wanting the locals,(not on yet but the're coming. I really don't have any interest in Tivo, anyhow which method is better when it comes to minimizing rain fade on the 119 slot? I'm guessing 2 dishes.

I think I convinced my sister-in-law to get one with a 5 minute demo. They will change the way you watch TV.
