LNB types & descriptions

[Franb001]

Somewhere I saw a nice site that had pictures and descriptions of all the available LNBs and the irds they were compatiable with. Does anyone know where this site might be? I lost it. One other question. Is a dual "Legacy" the LNB I need to use with a 2700 or 2800 IRD? And if I use an old DTV lnb, will I have trouble picking up key updates with my MC1 and a 2700? The dtv lnb works but of course, but it only picks up one sattelite. Thankyou.

Legecy series lnb's and switches will work with ALL receiver models including DP receivers, 2700/2800 yes. The reverse is the problem, DP Pro lnbs and switches only work on DP receivers unless a DP adapter is used.

On DTV single dishes, They work fine. You can use 2 dtv dishes one aimed at each sat and a legecy sw21 switch to make a dish 500 setup, That works fine. Also a Legecy dish 500 with the built in switch then a sw21 and a dtv dish at a third sat like 61 or 148 works fine on all receiver models as well. This will not work for 121 or 105 though as the sats run lower frequency needing a different lnb. Old Primestar dishes work for those as a cobble.
