1M Triax on 26E

[Homer]

Hi all, I presently have a motorised 1m Triax picking up KBS World on 26E very nicely in the east midlands. I would prefer to put up a fixed mount dish for this, as the Missus is hogging my hobby

My question is, if I fixed mount the dish for 26E as prime focus, what are the chances of getting another (dual for Sly+) lnb close enough to get 28E Astra ? I guess the excess gain of this dish could mean that I can mount the Sly lnb to the side and almost behind the 26E lnb, but has anyone ever tried this ? Alternatively I need two very small lnb's that can do a 2 degree gap !

Any thoughts ?

Hmm, if its sunny at the weekend I could try this with a spare lnb and a few beers

You can give it a try but to be honest with you i think that they are to close to each other, I have 28.5, 23.5, 19.2, 16.0, 13.0 and 10.0 with 9.0 on one Lnb (strong transponders) in front of my Triax 1.10

Awesome dish mate what's the other set up you have there?

[Homer]

Yes I agree they would be too close for it to work if the lnb's were side by side, but if 28E is much more poweful than 26E I might stand a chance putting the 28E lnb to the side and behind the focal point. I think I just need some good beer to guide my experimentation this weekend ;-)
Wish me luck !

Hello Gr8Guy


The one on Top is a Delta Star 1.2 (official 1.2w by 135h) with subreflextor in front so signal gose back in feedhorn/flansch Lnb (more gian)
With this dish you can look to the Nilesat 7west V & H tranponders without problems in London.
The Grego's or Fibo's like we call them are the best dish you can have, really high gian.

For more Info try fibo-owners in google
