My Coolsat 7100 receiver should be here next week so I don’t have it here to try. I have a question about a dish for my Coolsat 7100 receiver. I have an old dish 500 with a Twin Legacy LNB. I have seen post that say the Twin Legacy LNB won’t work with FTA receivers and I have seen post that say they will work with FTA receivers. So I will ask here and see what everyone has to say. I will be using this dish to pick up satellite 110 and 119. I think the Twin Legacy LNB has an internal switch? I’m not real sure about that. But I have read where they either won’t work or are not real user friendly to get to work on FTA systems. So maybe someone here will know or suggest a LNB I could get to receive 110 and 119 that will fit a dish 500 antenna and work with a Coolsat 7100 receiver.

if you could get your hands on a twin dish pro plus dpp lnb, do it. it's an automatic setup so you don't have to manually set anything. I use the 1000.2 dish which is dpp and it works flawlesly.
