2 Hooper3's install

[zplugger]

Looking for a good pic of two hoopers 3 with eastern Arc hybrid LNB, on a two hooper 3 system do they have to talk to each orther ? Like to keep them separate from each other,upstairs and downstairs.

They can be isolated.

Thanks navychop, that is good news. Just have to find good wiring idea.

It won't work with one hybrid LNB. You would either need a DPP LNB and a DPH42 switch, or two separate dishes with hybrid LNBs. Each Hopper 3 can have its own Solo Hub (if you want to add Joeys, if there are no Joeys then the Solo Hub would not be needed).

So two hopper 3's will work of one hybrid dish if you use a DPH42 switch ? Trying to align a eastern dish 61.5, 72 with the dishbox signal finder. It is so slow to respond on moving the dish, is their a cheap meter a DIY user can buy and make it easy ? Just cant get them both working, skew is set and elevation to spec, this is no fun with winter coming.

Not a hybrid dish, a DPP LNBF with a 42 Switch. The switch converts to Hybrid

As soon as HipKat sees your post he probably will post a wiring schematic for you. I know he has some. He is probably still at work.
