Both Dish and DirecTV dome antenna's have to toggle between 110 and 119. Dish also has to toggle with 129.
With all due respect, this is simply no longer true. All English language SD programming is carried on 101. I believe some local stations are carried on 110 (as well as on 99 and 103) but 119 is no longer necessary. Newer SWM installations are designed just to receive 99, 101, and 103. If you have an SD system you can get all the "cable channels" and pay per views on 101.
Point taken, I was reading the specs on the older carryout from Winegard thst still shows 110 119.
Looks like neither system has to toggle much with the wider carry out, but I still dontsee directv with HD on that antenna, unless the website Iis outdated.
You can't get DirecTV HD with that antenna because an entirely different frequency band is used for HD and an entirely different LNB is required. No dome system on the market can receive DirecTV HD because the single movable dish in a dome system can't access both of the two different frequency bands, Ka and Ku.
