My System: Looking to buy equipement for HD Free to air. Probably Technomate 6900
Can multiple LNB's work with Channel master internet dish

Hi,
I am a newbie, looking to buy Satellite dish equipment to pickup HD TV as it rolls out.

I have a 1 metre Channel Master dish which used to be used for internet connection.

I was told that i could use this to point at 1 satellite with 1 LNB.

But that it would not be good to use with 3 LNB's.

Something about it only being an uni-directional dish.

Can somebody give me some clarification of this, or is my supplier just trying to sell me another dish?

I am hoping to pickup Astra 2 (28E), Astra 1 (19E) & Hotbird (13E).

In case it matters, i am interested in getting setup for HD Transmissions as they roll out, and i will be using a HD receiver Technomate 6900 and from research on the internet new Titanium second edition 0.2dB LNBs.

Can this Channel Master dish be used with 3 LNB's ?

Thanks in advance,
Dave
