Dish antenna compatibility

[Horizon170]

Hi, I'm setting up a new dish system in my new to me RV.
I will use my VIP612DVR from home.

I have the Eastern Arc.
Here are three pictures of the new antenna I got from Radio Shack.

1. ==== dish.

2. ==== LNBF Back side.

3. ==== LNBF front with 4 in/outs. 1,2,3, and LNB in.

QUESTION========= Where do I connect my coax that will go to my receiver?. AND will this work OK for EA and get the proper satellites?
Thanks,

That's what I thought, but the instruction manual threw me. I guess it's a generic manual for multiple setups.

It appears to be this guy which I thought only worked with the 1000.4 dish. Maybe not. Anyway, it's a triple LNB that picks up 61.5, 72.7, and 77.

When Eastern Arc came to the 1000.2, the EA twin was supposed to be used. It only picked up sats 61.5 and 72.7.

Neither of these LNBFs will work with a Hopper 3.

For a Hopper 3, you have to use the Hybrid WA LNBF or the Hybrid EA LNBF with a 1000.2 dish.

You can connect to any of the ports except the LNB IN port.

Thanks TechWriter, I couldn't remember that XXX = LBN IN. I knew it was at one end or the other that's why I said use one of the center ports.

Mine are labelled 1,2,3,XXX where the XXX is not a number but something like AUX or maybe ADD INPUT. I just can't remember now. If you connect to either of the center ports you will be good to go. The XXX port is used to connect another dish that is needed in fringe areas to get the third satellite.
