Folks,
I've dumped my unreliable, motorised dish and am looking at either a monobloc LNB or multiple LNBs.
Some advice would be much appreciated please, as I keep going round in circles and not making a decision.
I live in Hampshire, south UK and would lie to (primarily) receive 19E and 13E.
My initial thoughts were for a monobloc LNB and a Triax 110cm dish to get the best signal.
I read that the monobloc LNBs are for dishes 75-85cm so presumably are optimised for 80cm.
Monobloc LNBs are easy to set up; I focus the 80cm dish on 13E and clamp the appropriate LNB and swing it round until I find 19E on the other LNB.
Ok, so I buy the 110cm dish and the Triax multiple LNB holder for either 2 or 4 LNBs.
I put an LNB into two of the positions in the clamps and point the dish at the midpoint 19E and 13E.
From the rear of the dish, I focus the lefthand LNB onto 19E and the righthand LNB on to 13E.
Q1). will a monobloc LNB work with dish sizes larger than 80cm ?
Q2). how easy is it to set up a 110cm dish firstly with 19E and 13E, then add 9E or others at a later date?
I'm happy with switching the signals from the receiver, it's just the dish size and LNB combinations that are confusing.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Dennis.
