[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 897089, member: 196043"] Hello and welcome to the forum! I have a TD88 (85cm) Triax dish with the same multifeed you link to. (My LNBs are looking at 28E/23E/19E/13E plus an extra one stuck on the side for 5E using an extra bracket) To get both 5W and 13E you'd need to align the dish at something between the two satellites (say 5E or 1W) using the standard LNB holder and then place the multifeed on the dish with the two LNBs on either end of the multifeed bar and adjust it again for best signals from both satellites. I can't comment on how it would perform in real life, but that would be how I would set it up. The multifeed bar isn't long enough to see 13E if the dish is aligned at 5W and the angle between the satellites would also mean it wouldn't work very well anyway. (Also it's not possible to place an LNB at the centre with this multifeed setup without modifying it) Why not just use two smaller dishes since you already have a 60cm? If you've got the space I think you'd find it more reliable in the long run. [/QUOTE]
