Q: QuestionHow many TV's can I connect to the Orby TV satellite dish?

Asked 6 years ago by Jose.

• A:Answer How many do you have? The answer depends on how many orby receivers you purchase. Orby hasn't said they have a limit and I don't think they do. However, after three or four tvs a booster would probably need to be attached to avoid any signal degradation.

Q: QuestionI need a LNB for my ORBY satellite dish - is that something Best Buy has

Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer While Direct , Dish and other providers offer kits on various online retailers, I believe you must purchase the Low Noise Block Converter from Orby. About the only thing will find on other sites is the diplexer that Orby uses on your installation. Orby: 877-672-9881 and 866-234-3069
