Interesting. Are you sure it's a Primestar? Primestar was definately linear. I thought they were pretty much gone before there was much circular up there except the 101 sat. Although now I seem to remember something about DTV buying Primestar out or something at the end. Perhaps they had an LNBF that would pick up both Primestar and DTV to allow the Primestar customers to transition over to DTV or something??? My memory is getting fuzzy. Sounds like an interesting lnbf.
