Question Dual LNB with Multiswitch?

I need the scoop on the correct way to install a Dual LNB with a multiswitch.

I have currently two direct receivers (DRD430RG's) and I want to add a third receiver.

Each of the two receivers is on its own dish (single LNB) and everything is great.

I want to use a Dual LNB and a multiswitch to hook all three receivers to it.



Question 1: Will this work?
Question 2: Is the Sandoun Dual LNB what I need? if not what do I need?
Question 3: will the 2X4 multiswitch work? If not what do I need?

I know I need to probably terminate the unused port on the multi-switch so I've got that covered.

Is there anything I need to know about using a Dual LNB and Multi-switch?

Any and all help is apprieciated

Mitch

You got it all. You only need a circular lnb. Make sure you get an lnb that would fit your dish.

Can I use the two standard LNB's I already have instead of buying a new dual lnb? I have the two dishes already aimed at the sats...

Just trying to save a buck...

If the two dishes are aimed at the same satellite, then yes you can use your Two LNBFs with a 2x4 multiswitch.
