Default Re: Satellite Dish

I have two Dishes on my roof because when I added local channels the signal came from a different satellite so one dish received all the programming for DISH & the other for the local channels. From my understanding it is no longer necessary to have two dishes because the local channel programming is routed through one telecommunications satellite. As to a separate dish for HD I can't answer that as I won't be upgrading to HD until we move to TV.
It's not worth it for me to buy all new equipment at this time.
