Yes, it's possible. But remember, you can only operate one kind of receiver at a time. Settup will be like this:
1. ku lnbf----h-h mount----receiver.
2. dual directv or dishnet lnbf mounted next to ku lnbf. Both Directv and Dishnet receiver will be connected directly to this dual lnbf.
3. Use FTA receiver to move the dish.
Total of cable run into your house is 3. One for FTA, the other 2 for DirecTV and Dishnet.

I was thinking of getting a 30-36" fortec dish with an hh motor for free2air use. Now if I get that it'll have a univrsal ku lnbf on it, but if I'm not mistaken, I believe I can also add additional lnbf's next to the ku one with a bracket of some sort, right?.
If so, would it be possible to set it up so the free2air receiver tells the HH motor to point the dish toward whichever (Dishnet/DTV) satellite I want to watch. The Dishnet/DTV LNB's wouldn't be connected to the motor or the f2a receiver, just directly to the dishnet/dtv ird so at that point the F2A equipment would be just used to get the dish into position.
Then simply add an abc switch between my IRD's and my tv so I can pick which receiver I want to appear on the tv.
Is this even possible, and if so, any suggestions on how to make it happen? Again, I'm looking to have 1 dish, 1 motor, 1 TV, 3 IRD's, and as many lnbf's as it takes.
