No, One LNB is made to pick up one sat. You will receive a false signal from another sat, but, if you scan, all you will get is duplicates of the sat the LNB is actually pointed at...

oh ok.
you can add another legacy lnb to one of your dn dishes and get 119/110.
then move your other dish over to 82 or 91 and add another legacy lnb to it to get both.
so 2 poor mans dishes 4 legacy lnbs into a 4x1 diseqc.119/110/82/91 cheap and easy.
search "poor mans dish" for more.

Yes you can get two sat. with one LNB which is 118.7 (Anik 3) + 119. That's what i read some where. You just pick up 119 angel but in your receiver when you select 119 sat. to scan, select also 118.7 (Anik 3).

You do need the elliptical 18x36 dish if you want the 3 sats to one dish, plus a 4x1 switch. Other wise, you need another dish and still a 4x1 switch. Good luck.
What's on Anik 3???
