[QUOTE="benhg, post: 161311, member: 201846"] OK, I get it, the v-box converts the DiSCeQ signal into 36v that powers the old dish. Coupled to a new receiver it should automatically hop from one satellite to the next. I presume the remote that comes with it is just if you need to move the dish manually for whatever reason. Given that I'll stilll be using the old dish, is it likely that I'll need to replace the LNB? Thanks for the help, it's been great, and given me a new option that I didn't know existed! By the way, the Fortec is a fixed system and isn't hopping satellites. It's just very slow at changing channels, maybe 1 second each time. It takes forever if you're just skipping through the channels. My old Pace MS500 changed them in a flash by comparison. [/QUOTE]
