I would like to do this:


One big dish for 99


One big dish for 101


One big dish for 103


Three separate dishes all fed into a multi-switch without having to use any of the new slimline dishes.

First, is there individual Ka-band LNB's to use for a dish that is to be pointed at only one orbital location (99 and 103) and secondly, is there a multi-switch for DIRECTV that can even do this? Much like the Multi-switches for DISH. I currently have 4 satellite dishes on DISH. One for 61.5, one for 110, one for 119, and one for 129, all fed into a multi switch for distribution. I would like to do the same with DIRECTV.

Thanks.
 
There is no separate LNB's and no switches.

Those three are so close together that you would be better off having a dish machined to fit your needs and you retrofitting the LNB on it.

Okay, I'll bite. Why do you need to use three large dishes instead of one Slimline? (I think I know, but I just had to ask!)

Rain fade and trees. Believe it or not, even though 99-103 are close to each other when your space is limited and there's a tree in the way you need to split it up.
