2.3 c band dish

[wooliedog]

have read quickly about having two lnb on one cband dish if sats where 8 degrees apart would it be possible sorry both being c band lnb

You will need a bracket that will take another LNB (literally) beside your primary LNB.

C-banders, step in anytime.

It's possible.

Depends on how good the signals are on the two sats.

You'd usually point the dish at the weakest satellite of the two, with the prime LNBF on that sat and the offset LNBF aligned for the stronger of the two.

The LNBF's will be close together, so you may need to make a custom bracket and/or modify the scalar rings to fit them side by side.

Yup you can buy special LNB holders for the 2 LNB's. One you prime on the main satellite ( weaker of 2 as written ) and then tune other in.
Not always so easy does depend on separation and signal strength of satellites you want to get. But lets say I wanted 100.5e 105.5e 108.5e and 113.5e

I could get most but not all frequencies as there is a trade off on reception. So dish size matters.

Of course you could do what I did and build a platform above your place and have a collection of dishes.



If you did it quickly maybe your neighbours wont notice.

I posted a pic last year with 4 LNB's on a 2.3 mtr Mesh dish.I'll have a look if I can find it again.

Here's an old one of mine. Thaicom 78.5e KU band and a Cband LNB on home made mount on 68.5e.
Ten degrees of separation. 3m Prodelin solid.

When I drive up the hill a bit I get views like this around 3000m

[wooliedog]

signals both good 76.5 best 90 percent 68.5 around 75 percent have made bracket from old router guide will strengthen when targeted thanks all

You've done well, wooliedog.

Prime LNB in center slot on weaker satellite and adjust second LNB in other slot.
