I read that people on here have read instructions on the new mpgeg 4 directv h20 reciever saying that it needs a 5 LNB dish. Does anyone have a picture of what that dish looks like?
what does the 5 LNB dish look like

thats because One LNB has 3 Lnb's built in & the other one has 2 LNB's built in = 5 LNB
thats kind of neat, i guess the satellites are so close together that they can be picked up on on one LNB

It seems it's actually 3 lnbs in one housing, it's all about the way the surface area of the dish itself is designed.
The dish surface looks like nuthin special, just a chunk of a larger round parabolic reflector like any other offset feed dish.

Well, I didn't use/nor really mean the word special, what I meant is that the 3-in-one lnb must have a dish that has the right angles and focal points to get all 3 on that, and pull in 2 others, really, the shape/angles are special on any dish, you can't just throw a peice of metal behind a lnb and hope the signals intersect in the right places (which I'm sure you know), even moreso if you're trying to pull in 5 diferent satellites, while still making the dish small enough to not scare off prospective customers (well, hopefully).
