How do you go about hooking up two C-Band LNB's for each polarity to your receiver if you use one of these orthomode feed horns?
 
I am thinking about buying these 8525's off of E-Bay the price is only $50 each. I had a dealer tell me that a 8520 was a better LNB for home use, would any of you recommend the 8520 over the 8525? I can get the two 8520's for only about $75 more total. Which would be the best to use on a single orthomode Chaparral feedhorn?
 
I got a good deal on two Norsat 8115's from a dealer. So that is what I went with. Maybe they will be good.
 
I am running one ortho with a modded switch, and one without. I have not noticed one iota of difference. They both work well. I do recommend a powered switch, at the very least.

I ordered a WNC SWA-48, but they sent the replacement model for that switch, the inside looked different from the SWA-48 so I did not know if I could modify it. I thought I would give it a try unmodified. I plugged the vertical LNB into the 13v side and the horizontal LNB into the 18v side. So far it has been working fine with the two Norsat 8115 LNB's.
