I have a Directv RCA dish. Can I get a dual LNB and a disq switch to receive 110 and 119 using the same dish and 1 coax down to the FTA receiver?

Thanks for any help that can be provided.

Thanks for the info. So, what type of dish should I buy and can I use a disq switch to maintain only 1 coax to the receiver?

I saw a DiSEqC 1.2 MOTORIZED H-H Mount on ebay. Can I hook this up to receive 3 satellites using the dave dish?

VT buy a dish that has a dual LNB, use a 4 port disq switch, use your direct dish for bev and the dual dish for charlie,and yes u can maintain one line to the ird, but u have to get 3 pcs. of cable about 6 ft between lnbs. and switch...if u use a hh mount how u gonna change the az....there are alot of dual lnb dishes that will work but avoid the ones with a switch built in...

Anonymous, perfect. so, the dual dish I buy - is there a specific make I should look for? I always thought dual lnb meant you could connect to 2 receivers but this sounds like 2 satellites to 1 receiver off 1 dish (i hope)...

Very Thankful

Get Oval DTV dish (not round) with 2 lnb's and align the 119 and 110 satellite for Dishnetwork and round single DTV dish for Bev.
