dish 500 & dtv oval interchangable?

[dssnuty]

Would this be way too much to ask for? Has anybody tried this or been successful? thanks in advance...

I am using a DTV oval dish with 3 lnbs to get Dish 500 and the DTV 101 right now. You still need a SW 21 switch for the Dish 500 the DTV multiswitch will not work for Dish.

like murdock saids that is the best way to do it get a oval dish and you will be able to run both dave and charlie with their own switches dtv multiswitch will not work for charlie or the charlie switch will not work for dave good luck

I guess what I'm asking is; will charleys oval dish get both of daves satillites and will daves oval work with both charly's. That kind of interchangable....
