how many birds can i pick up with the dish1000? i currently have a 3-lnb unit mounted to it and my sattelite place told me i could run another lnb (bev) to the built in switch.
do you think i could run BOTH bev's to this one switch from a disec switch?
just to make this clearer, i have ONE empty port on the built in dish1000 lnb/switch. i could run one coax to it, either 91 or 82 from another lnb.
Dish 300 Single slot 18" round DBS dish that can pick up programming from one DBS satellite location at a time. DBS locations for Dish are 61.5°, 110°, 119°, 129°, 148° and (not used) 157°.
Dish 500 A two slot 18" x 20" DBS dish designed to pick up 110° and 119° simultaneously. However it can be used to pick up 119° and 129° or just one satellite location like 61.5° or 148°.
Dish 1000 A three slot DBS dish designed to pick up 110°, 119° and 129° simultaneously. This dish can be used to pick up 129° and 148° simultaneously.
Dish 1000.2 Slightly larger than a Dish 1000, its integrated head unit has 3 LNBs (110°, 119° and 129°), an input for a 4th LNB, and DP Plus switching to 3 receiver outputs.
Plus Dish 500+/1000+ Same as the Dish 1000 in function but about 5" larger and can pick up the 118.75° FSS location. As a 500+ it picks up 110°, 118.75° and 119°. Adding an LNB for 129° makes it a 1000+.
SuperDISH 105: Specifically designed to pick up 105°, 110° and 119° 121: Specifically designed to pick up 110°, 119° and 121°

thill, i dont really understand the problem. do you really think i thought he typed all that up himself?
i asked for some info and he gave it to me. at least he had some help, unlike you. hey, where did you get that pic from? did you make it yourself or copy it from somewhere else???
Since U have a dish pro switch, it made sense u should stay constant and use all dish pro LNB's...what If U want to add more LNB's with a DP switch later...and of course U needed another LNB if U wanted to add another satellite..
