Direct TV, can I connect separate Dishes to individual recievers?

Question

I've got a dual LNB dish feeding 3 directTV settop boxes.

(2 are DVRs with two coaxs each, and 1 single coax.)

I keep having problems loosing signal on one of the DVRs way

out in my Shop. I had an old Dish Network Dish (single lnb) still

hanging on the shop... and hooked up one line to it (re-angled the dish).. and get 98% signal. Can I hang up another single lnb and get the other coax line working... and not mess with the multiplexer switch in the house?

Hi Wayne,

Other then the trouble to set it up your idea will work.

It sounds like you have a loss in the run to your shop. Verify the lead and connections first. If they are O.K. use another LNB. I finally did the same thing on a long run I had.
