A friend of mine asked me to buy him antenna for BEV. I called a satellite tv dealer in Toronto and asked for a non-legacy BEV dish. I was told that I could use a generic dish plus a 110/119 metal bracket for the second LNB.

I don't think it would pick up 82 and 91 birds at the same time. My reason for saying this is there's a big difference in the elevation between 110 and 119 in comparison to 82 and 91 birds.

I'm using a legacy BEV antenna with a plastic U bracket for my BEV setup. The two LNBs are almost alligned to each other.

Anyone is using a 110/119 metal bracket and pointed to 82 and 91 in the Greater Toronto Area?

A plain old DP twin will work for hooking up two receivers. You can also use a legacy twin. You dial in the 110 bird by adjusting the skew setting. No need for extra brackets and lnb's etc.
