will this dish do the same job as the dish 500? since it has 3LNBS you think I could get 110, 119 and 121 on DISH?

Nimiq 1 and Nimiq 2 on BEV? what about the 3rd?

If its the terk s26 like the one I have then no, its only good for dtv or bell and the 119 on dish, but only one at a time, can't join them together

It's an Eagle Aspen DTV3PDS



so I can get Bev Nimiq1 and Nimiq2 at same time right?

if it's the triple lnb (all 3 lnb's fused together) with the built in switch then you cannot use that lnb

why is that though..............can I open it up and disconnect one of the LNB's?

the middle lnb runs at a different frequency for the dtv 110 sat.

I tore apart that lnb. Utterly useless. I HAVE seen where you can take two separate lnb's, secure them to each other, and use that. But you will still only get 2 birds.

No, like I said its useless. What I meant was, you can use the pan and arm and bracket, and attach 2 separate lnb's to where the original 3-in-1 was. I saw a pic somewhere of it.
