Ok I currently have the dish 500 with pro lnb and a pvr reveiver. I tried to add a jvc3700 reveiver but only got about half my channels. I was told I need a legacy lnb but dishnet wants$100 for it and I dont like buying from ebay. Someone told me I could use 2 directv lnbs with a multiswitch. Anyone heard of this? Thanks
New setup???

You will need a DishPro adapter

Please provide more details about your current setup. Type of lnbf (dual, twin, quad)? switches and type? Model of PVR?

wemmington, you might also wish to consider selling the 3700, add that to the $70 you'd pay for an adapter and purchase a new 311 receiver instead. You'll end up with a lot better receiver for the $.

Thanks again 4 the replies. Would the 2 rca lnbs work if I bought some kind of multiswitch, the reason I ask is because I have 2 xtra directv lnbs laying around anyway. I would buy a dishpro adapter but I couldnt find one where I live and I hate ordering things. Thanx

I have ordered from Dishstore and they were very quick getting the order
out. Besides anything you buy from them helps support this forum site.
