What type of LNB do I have?

[MImarineofc]

I just recently switched from Directv to Dish. I acquired another dish for my cabin but I am unsure of what LNB it is. The Dish says TURBOHD on the front and the tag on the LNB itself says A71C01-WL10002P7. What do I have?

How many "eyes" does it have? 2 big ones =1000.2 ea 3 eyes equal spacing=1000.2 wa 3 eyes with 2 close together =1000.4 ea

so that would be a 1000.4 eastern arc

You have the 1000.4 EA.

If I were to take just my hopper and no joeys to my cabin would I need a solo node or can I connect it directly to my receiver with one wire if so what port.

Need a node for three tuners, can connect direct but will only have two tuners functioning.

What is the proper way to wire up the LNB on my current setup there are only 2 wires coming into the solo node but there are 3 lnbs. I haven't taken it apart to look but it appears three wires coming out and one wire goes back into the lnb.

Wires from the LNB are not specific to a satellite (unless using a switch), the receiver specifies which satellite signal is connected to the coax. Each wire from the LNB can feed two tuners so two wires are needed for three tuners. From the node, one wire can feed three tuners.

You need a single node.

On the 1K.4 LNB, with a single Hopper, you connect port 1 to SAT 1 on the Single Node, port 2 to SAT 2 on the Single Node, and the HOST port on the Single Node to the Hopper.
