    One dish for Galaxy 19 and AMC 4

    ADVERTS 1
    Fortec Dual Universal Linear LNB
    30 Inch Winegard Dish
    -2X VisionSAT (IV200 PVR)
    - Viewsat Ultra Lite
    - No motor

    My current dish can point to Galaxy 3c or Galaxy 19 easily but one at a time, with good signal above 80%.

    I want to get one more dish for galaxy 19 and AMC 4. The two dishes will feed to all my receivers using "EMP-2 SAT / 4 RECV DiSEqC Multiswitch"

    Can I use another 30inch Winegard dish to do it using "magic bracket" with multiple LNBs or any special LNB out there can do what I want? Also, will the signal strength be impacted by doing it that way?

    Thanks.

    So, you want to feed four LNBs to two receivers?
    Read the Switches Simplified FAQ for some ideas.
    All LNBFs will need two outputs each.
    You'll also probably want to use Standard (not Universal) LNBFs.

    As for multiple LNBFs on 30" dishes, I'd get another opinion.
    Not sure you're gonna make that work.

    I did some search and found the answer.

    "SatelliteAV" gave good description about my question back in 10-24-2010... I'll use one dish for Galaxy 19, then combine existing one and feed to all receivers.
