Hi,

I'm looking to purchase and install a single dish for the following orbits. Looking at 24" right now.

1. 110
2. 118/119
3. 129

I'm looking to connect to 3 different receivers.

What switch should I purchase if they are NOT dual LNBs? (if this is even possible).

What switch should I purchase if they ARE dual LNBs?

I'm in Toronto. Do I need a 33" dish?

Thanks in advance,

Dish 1000+ with dp44 switch and power inserter would be the ideal set up.

Not sure if the 24" is big enough for 118. If these are fta receivers then all lnb's would need to be duals, and the switch 9x4.

24 should be good with dual legacy ln b in TO. Get a powered disq multiswitch and you are good.
9x8 multiswitch allows connection of 4 different LNBs signals to 8 satellite receivers.(mxmart)

since you will be using 118w, you may want to consider a larger dish. A 33 inch perhaps

One thing to consider when using the 9x8 switch is the number of cables you'll need to run into the house. I don't think mounting that type of switch outside, so 2 cables from each lnb is needed.
