I tried searching the forums but couldn't find anything, I'm in southern california, and I'd like to have some of my local channels. I have a sonicview sv-4000 and I'm using an old directv dish with only 1 lnb, is it possible?

thats the problem. U will need a Dishpro or aleast 2 lnbs. Your not able to pick up that other sat that has ur locals.

oh I see so most likely I'll be adding a dual lnb, once I do that which sat do I look for?
thanks for you're reply.

You will need a dish with 2 LNB's or 2 seperate dishes with LNB's and you will also need a SW21 switch or a DiseqC switch to do the job.

cool thanks for the replies guys, one more question rather than start a new thread... I restored the factory settings and then flashed the latest BIN file and I noticed some channels on EPG say "Pirate Tv" I tuned in and it said that I was receiving a channel that you could only see if you were stealing satellite. Should I just ignore it? Maybe it was there before and I didn't notice.
