You have a triple LNB Eastern Arc.
No, I don't. This is the same LNB I used for 5 months in western Montana where I was getting 110, 119, and 129.
I have the small dish on a tripod. The small dish is the 1000.2, right? It's been 3+ yrs since I've cared, so I have forgotten what I have since it works everywhere I set up.
Hybrid triple LNB, maybe? I don't remember.
Regardless, it is the same LNB I've used everywhere I stopped between Fla and MT, and back. Now working our way to western LA, then western CO.
The double LNB for the EA is sitting in a box. Changing them is more of a PITA than it is worth, to me.

The clearest visible difference between the 1000.2 and 1000.4 dish is that the 1000.4 has a fine tuning adjustment for elevation. You can see the two compared side by side on Zulu's website.
I thought it was possible to get the 61.5 and 72 on a WA lnb, though it wouldn't be ideal. But, I don't know that.
I have carefully dialed in a WA LNB to get the EA 61.5 and 72.7 sats on the 119/129 LNB's of a western arc set, albeit with poor signal levels. But it's just not possible to include the short 4.3 degree spread to the 77 sat with the remaining 9 degree spread LNB.
The "Outdoor" account requirements still seem to be a grey area with Dish. I've heard that a Wally or VIP receiver is required to use the app for locals changes, yet I have two Hoppers w/Sling (H2's) and a Joey on my Outdoor account, and regularly make locals changes using the app. Go figure...
As for getting an H3 installed in an RV, local authorized Dish retailers are typically much more flexible about installations than working directly with Dish.

On my Hopper's signal strength screen, it shows I have a Hybrid Triple WA Switch. IDK, but it works.
If anyone cares to tell me how to save pics at a small enough size, I can load pics I took in the past 5 min of the dish, LNB, and signal strength screen.

Awesome!! Thanks.

Well, that is a 1000.2 dish, and it is a WA LNB. It's really odd that you're able to get all three EA sats though, given the WA spacing. The 61.5 signal level shown is fairly low, but obviously it's there. What level do you see on the other two sats? The photo below is the triple LNB used on the 1000.4 dish. Notice the narrow spacing for the 72.7 and 77 sats, compared to the wide space to the 61.5 sat.
