using 3 TVs w/one dish

Sach

Banned
hello, is there a way to use 3 tv sets with one direct tv dish?

the way i understand it, to get two tvs to work independently off of one dish, you need a dual-lnb adapter...so is there an adapter or device to get 3 tvs working independently off of one dish? if so, how much is this adapter and how much is a dual lnb adapter?(approximately)

finally, i've seen satellite splitters that being sold at radio shack. can these take the place of a dual lnb adapter?

thanks
 
Yes, rca has a dish that has two dual lnbs. Usually the a dual lnb cost about 70 bucks just for that piece, and i have seen the whole system for under that. But if you want the two dual lnb with one satellite and one receiver for 129 and each reciever is 50 bucks after the purchase of the satellite system. Directtv But i did just see one bad part to that, it requires some weird programming. I don't know, if it is good or not.
 
Satellite systems use Dual output LNBs and Multi-switches for multiple receiver hookup, you will need a dual LNB and a multi-switch (not to be confused with regular coaxial spliters sold at Radio Shack)these vary in size and prize, I've seen them 2way, 4way and 8way each for their respective amount of receivers from $20 to well over a $100.
