Are MR63 satellites compatible with MR60 system
I have a MR60 system with 2 satellites. Could I add one or even two MS63 satellites to this system? Would it even help to get a stronger signal where the new satellites are?

Yes.
The MR60 system, in your case the MK63, is a combination of MR60 (router) and two MS60 satellites.

When looking for satellites, careful to find one that works with the MR60.
The MS60 is a safe best.
Unfortunately, Netgear does not seem to have come up with a grid that covers all MR and MS devices.

So if I understand the info in the provided link, a MR63 satellite will not work with a MR60 router. If I want to add satellites beyond the two I have now, I will need to use MS60 satellites. Do I have this right? Sorry, I'm really not very knowledgeable about this stuff.
