    more sattelites on 1 fixed dish.........

    ........G'day, i have recently bought a dm500s and wired it up to my fixed sky dish.
    question is, can i attach another/more LNB's in order to receice other sats from this fixed dish position?
    if so how?

    Ta,
    mick.

    not on a sky dish , no , too small

    if you had a dish between 80cm and 110cm you can attach an lnb rack and have 4 or 5 lnb,s on it , and a diseqc switch to switch between them , typically 4 lnb,s and a diseqc switch ( I have one myself )

    but you are wasting your time wanting more from a zone 1 39cm or a zone 2 59cm sly dish system

      It depends on where u are and the size or the dish u can get a mono block lnb and switch between 2 sats for example 13e and 19.2 ur best bet is to get a motor and depending on how big ur dish is and how strong ur signal is u should be able to pick up most satellites in Europe

          Yes standard sky dish is only good for 28.2 I've got a 1m dish works fine for most sats 13e , 19.2, 23.5, and 42e but sure a 90cm is fine in uk depends where u are
