DirecTV dish with E* LNBs?

[Digital Dude]

I've read that the 129 bird is relatively weak and people sometimes use 2 Dish 500s instead. My question is can I use the lnb's from a 1000 in either a phase 3 DirecTV dish or an AT-9 to have more reflector area?

Anyone tried it?

I have a Dish 1000 and AT-9 ... you're welcome to come over and try I was told by the installer of my 622 that the 129 is still not anchored, sid it is still moving around up there! Then again he was an installer and not for Boeing.
