So, I can use my directv dish, but the receiver will only get dish or bev as long as I aim it in the right direction.
As far as I know, a dish is a dish. I have someone similiar to you who had Star Choice which can't be used with FTA receivers. He re-aimed to DISH and up and running.
Sorry if I wasn't clear. Billo is correct - DirectTV receiver won't get anything else. You need a FTA receiver and redirect your existing dish.
I set up my friends captiveworks, but I currently have directv. I wanted to get another captiveworks because I wanted to cancel my directv. I just need to set up the receiver and find the 110 and 119?
