My System: 80cm Trax dish, 2 Quad lnbs on Astra 19 & 28 East, Triple Dragon, Sky Master , Titian and Smart Maximus plus Digital Decoders & 35cm Dish pointing on 5 West Atlanticbird. |
Hi Guys, I have a stationary 80cm dish with 28 East as my main lnb and beside it ihave 19East, I have a spare lnbs of which I would like to get Turksat @ 42 East, Can anyone tell me if this is possable without having to mess up the other two lnbs as I know 42 East is much lower than the other two in orbit. I have tried to find pictures of a simular setup so I would find my bearings before I start but also I have had no luck. If someone could help me with a picture of details I would be most greatful. Regards: Alan. | ||

My System: Sky UK family pack. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 5 fixed dishes (4.6E/5E/13E/16E/19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA (with dragon cam), Coship CDVB 2300A, Fortecstar Lifetime Ultra, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S, 2250kb  The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue | You will almost certainly have to put another dish up to get 42E.

My System: 80cm Trax dish, 2 Quad lnbs on Astra 19 & 28 East, Triple Dragon, Sky Master , Titian and Smart Maximus plus Digital Decoders & 35cm Dish pointing on 5 West Atlanticbird. | I have set up 42e (Turksat) on a 80cm dish I am receiving the likes of TNT TV8 and a lot of other channels etc all over 74% signal, But i am missing most of the south beam still, will this come by turning the lnb or am I not doing something right? Any help wold be much appreciated. By the way I hope we will not lose TNT when this satellite is replaced in a couple of weeks time. | ||

There's an East, West and S1 beam. You will not receive nothing from the East beam from UK. | ||
