    Universal Multi LNB Holder

    Yesterday I installed my dish and motor on the back of my house. It's the second motor install I have done. However I came across a few problems. My scaffold pole had a slight oddity to it. Maybe it was squished slightly or something, as it was plumb on 3 sides and not on 1. But it was a mute point anyway, as due to the trees I was already over the roofline, and couldn't get a few of the sats I wanted. But I could hit 13e and 19.2e, and these were the main 2 I was after.

    So... Instead of having a noisy, slow motor for 28.2, 13 and 19 East, I have decided to use an output of my Sky Mini Dish's Lnb and use this for 28.2e. Then I will add a multi Lnb to my 80cm Offset Dish and get 19.2e and 13e all managed by a DiSEqC switch.

    I'd appreciate some help in picking a multi LNB holder for my dish as I am having trouble finding one. It is a Fraccaro 80cm offset dish.

    Cheers.

    a sky LNB is designed to pick up signals reflected from an oval Sky shaped dish, it will not work correctly if used with a non-sky dish..

    Also you can not use a monoblock and a single LNB all on the same dish, you will need to use 3 seperate LNB's like this..

      No he means he wants to have a normal sky dish and a second non sky dish1 the non sky dish will have a munlti LNB arm or monoblock! then the output from the three LNB/2 dishes will be going into a diseqc switch! then the out put of the diseqc switch will go into the receiver!

      Read the Rules here; they apply to Everyone.
