Hi folks, I first posted this on the Dish vs DirecTv forum, then seeing I got no replies so then I wrote to Satellite Guys for a response & then it was moved to this forum, fyi, so I hope this is the right forum. Thank you for the reply Anole & yes the lnbs are different, even the spacing for their respective Sats but if I just want to exchange the LNBs(use DishLNBs on) the DTV66E dish will I not get a better reception using the larger elliptical dish(DTV66E) as compared to the smaller size dish(1000.2) from Dish.
