How to add 28,2e to 80cm dish with monoblock (13e/19,2e)..?

Information exchange on LNBs, Single satellite, motorised and multi-satellite systems. DiSEqC switches, positioners, motors, actuators, dish-alignment etc.

How to add 28,2e to 80cm dish with monoblock (13e/19,2e)..?

Hi.
Is it possible to add single lnb for 28,2e to 80cm dish with installed monoblock for 13e and 19,2e?
I am only asking because i have no idea how to resolve diseq setup as monoblock has one allready built in..

There are a couple of threads on this already. Something I've never tried, but one suggested solution was to solder a wire internally between the 1st two ports on a 4 way diseqc switch. I think there may even be an adapter to do it externally.

An easier option in my opinion is to ditch the monoblock and use three separate LNBs, it saves the faffing around.

Oh, a little search of the forum brings up this thread:-

Monoblock on 4:1 diseqc switch?

A good solution I think. A switch made especially for your purpose.

My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

I've just installed a four way DiSEqC switch with a two way DC pass combiner for ports 1 and 2 on my Sister's dishes, works well on their Technomate 5200D to serve the guest room with Hotbird, Astra 19.2 and Astra 28.2 East.
