Triax TD78 & Multi LNB Advice

[mickb82]

Hi,
Today I installed a Triax TD78 with a Triax Multi LNB bracket. Firstly after fitting the dish I fitted the 19.2 LNB to the right of the dish arm butt up to the centre bracket and then I got the dish positioned until I found 19.2e using my sat finder, I then scanned for channels and got about 500, then using the signal meter pc program on the laptop I adjusted the dish to get maximum signal, which was about 90% SNR and 99% AGC. I then scanned and got over 1500 services.
I then fitted the 13e LNB with is touching the 19.2 LNB to the right of the centre bracket, I got about 75% SNR and 90% AGC on 13e with over 1500 services.
Then I tried to find 23.5e on the left hand side of the bracket but I cant find it, I found 28.2e but it was about 20mm higher than the bracket even with the bracket fully tilted.
Tomorrow I am going to remove the 19.2 & 13 LNB's and adjust the dish to find 23.5 and then add 19.2 then 13 see if that works any better. Has anyone got any other advice on what I could do to get all three satellites working?
Thanks.

I have similar setup on td88. Dish was aligned to 16e with standard lnb bracket then fitted multi bracket with 19 to the left of Centre and 13 to the right 23.5 has about 50mm gap between lnb holder bases maybe a little less

From left to right is 23.5, 19.2, 13, 9 standard size inverto lnb

Here's my TD88 with 6xlnbs on it. 4.8e, 13e, 16e, 19.2e, 23.5e and 28.2e, the bigger dish allows for wider spacing

What lnb have used to be able to get 13, 16 and 19.2 I can pick out the inverto at 13 & 19.2 but what have you squeezed in between. I just couldn't get those three hence I ended used 9

ALPS Bullet nose LNB's perfect to get those tight spacings

Correct. And it is such a snug fit it doesn't need a holder.

Thanks for all the advise, I have got it all sorted now. I found out where I was going wrong, I'm using Inverto Black Ultra LNB's and when I first set it up I didn't have the front of the LNB flush with the bracket as I got a slightly better signal when it was further forward, due to this 19.2 was obstructing 23.5. I have now moved the 19.2 LNB 33mm from the centre bracket as per the instructions and put 13 and 19.2 LNB's flush to the brackets, 23.5 then goes further forward with the front bit over lapping 19.2 and I can then pick it up perfect. Im getting 4949 channels across these three and 28.2 from my other dish and the SNR is around 80-85% and the AGC is about 95% across all three satellites. IMG_1269.JPGIMG_1271.JPG

Just a quick question.
I've been toying with the idea of getting a similar setup to excolier, but with 0.8w, 9e, 13e, 16e, 19.2e, 23.5e on a td 88.
Would I get away with 0.8w on the end or would it not be strong enough?
Maybe even try sticking 4.8e in betwenn 0.8 w and 9 e?
Any thoughts on this In the south east ( farnham area ) ?

4.8 is almost hanging off the end m8 the way I have mine set up but cant get viasat that far off prime focus so went for 9 so I think you will be pushing 0.8
