Unfortunatly there are no ID #'s on th lnb that are relevent to any searches for identification. It has Horizontal and Vertical polorization which leads me to wonder if I could use it in the same system as my single cable FTA dish. I just assume the lnb is a standard one from its day, and then what about my 500 dish? Could my system work with 3 different variations of dishes that operate on similar tech? Also when I salvaged the Primestar dish hooked up to it was "Channel Master Multiswitch for twin fixed LNB" I assume it is "two in one" LNB.

13 Vdc/Vertical 18 Vdc/Horizontal



Rx1 Rx2

What are these connections at the bottom for, multiple receivers?
Or did two coax's run to the box? The mother of the man who had this system hooked up, had tried to "fix" it not knowing enough, so it was not clear of the proper oriantation, but I do know it all works still. (The dish stinks though.) Can I use a basic finder with this style of LNBF? I thought I had to do the vertical and horizontal seperatly.
