question from a newbee.. can you use a Dish Pro 1000 with a Pan sat receiver? It is a 2700.

AFAIK, the Pansat can't drive the built-in switch of the 1000's LNBF(s). There's nothing wrong with the dish itself, of course, but its smaller size would make it difficult to pick up most FTA signals.

Looking for some help...I used to be a Directv subscriber..I just happened accross a pan sat 2700A. Is it going to be possible for me to get any channels with my three Lnb Eliptical dish? I cant seem to pick up anything?? If so how do I find the direction to aim my Dish? Thank in advance for any info....

You might be able to reuse the dish, but you'll need a Ku-band LNB to get much of anything.
