My neighbor's had Dish recently installed, then we had it installed a month later than they did. We have the same Dish (Dish Turbo HD branding), but on the outside of their LNB it says "DishPro" and on ours it says "Dish HD." Is there a difference? I think they're both triple feed horn (I think that's what they're called) LNB's.

they probably got one of the last 1000.2s installed and you got the 1000.4 dish.

What's the difference between a 1000.4 and a 1000.2?

1000.2 is just an earlier version. E cut back on inventory by using the 1000.4 on both eastern arch and western arch just different LNB's.

Does a newer LNB and Dish provide any benefit?

little bit more signal but really not enough to jump up and down about, maybe another 5 points.
