The answer is perhaps. Or there used to be... But I do not know if it is still.
Back when I had Hughes Net and DIREC TV I had what Motosat calles a "Bird on a wire" this is a DirecTV Single or dual (Forget which) LNB on an arm that hung off the side of the main LNB/BUC arm for the Hughes 7000
Had I had a different Hughesnet assignment I could have hung "Multiple" LNB (triple today) and picked up Dish instead of Directr.
BUT I do not knwo if they are still doing new 7000 installations (hughes) and DirecTV is .... well.. Good chance they will soon drop the satellite that system picked up. and possible go to internet only in the not too distant future.
FInally.... SPeeds on the 7000 were low to mid DSL.. nothing to brag about.
