I have a DISH STB and live in Dubai where service is very limited. Can somebody help me with installation along with materials needed. I have DISH HD STB which I want to connect to my PC. What type of Dish and LNB should I look for in the market. Can I use Existing SD Antenna and LNB ?

I already know a guy next to my apartment who does this. Just Curious to know how its done bcz I already have RG6 cable and F connectors. I'm a marine engg and have installed TVRO on ships ( antenna tunes automatically ). Was planning to align it same as other antennas on the roof!
