sure, a dish can have multiple recieving processors on one dish, add another dish next to it, triple your availble sat. signal and channels too. you'll likely have multiples of the same station, but some find it worth it to get that one other channel the first sat. does not have.

Up here in Ontario Insurance Companies will not write a house policy if the tank is older than 15-20 years. They will want a new tank.

This tank definetly looks older than 15 years. I also don't like the feed line coming from the top of the tank. Condensation will form in the bottom of the tank. All new tanks now have bottom feed lines and the tank should slope toward the valve at the bottom of the tank to keep water from rusting out bottom of tank.

I was an oil tank inspector for the insurance underwritters in Ontario, it was a part of my training manual.
