Future use for Voom dish

[ptech]

Quote ptech:
"No, The Voom dish uses a single LNB and the Dish system uses a dual LNB."

Wrong, Voom used Direct TV dual LNB's but only used one RF connector on the LNB. The other is there unused. The Voom LNB and dish will work with Direct or Dish.

My Voom system which was installed last December only has one LNB on a 30 inch dish.

But I do have a spare Dish receiver hooked up monitoring 61.5 and working. Well, one info loop.

You can see it now. Just take the lnb from the Voom stb and hook it up to the Dish stb. The channels will load from the Dish 61.5 sat.

Is the "stb" the smart card inside the reciever, and the "stb" the reciever itself?

I should proof read. What I meant to ask was is the "lnb" the smart card, and the "stb" the reciever?

Thanks!!

The LNB or short for "low noise blocker", is the grey palstic part of the dish on the end of the arm in front of the dish. That has a wire or coax cable going to your satellite receiver or STB, short for "set top box" or receiver.

And the Pentagon channel! Fox news with uniforms : )

Well I guess Al Jazeera on that bird could be equated with the balance of mainstream media!
