You need another dish.

My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me. |
Many folk get 28E, 19E and 13E on an 80cm Dish. | |||

You'll need to look for a lower focus of dish. Second focus has a loss of 10/20 cm - a third one much more. Good luck, when it rains...  | |||

Nor me. | It's a very common and highly successful arrangement in England, not known for rain fade problems. Up where you live might be problematic, though. Loads of recent Threads from folk wanting to do just this. Brackets are easily obtained and fitted. Of course, if you wanted 13E as well, it's best to focus the Dish somewhere around 21.5E, but it really isn't an issue. | ||

My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | On an 80cm dish,when adjusted optimally you'd get a signal on both satellites stronger than you would get on a standard sky minidish. Focusing the dish somewhere between the two sats work very well, biased towards Astra 19e. | ||

A decent 60cm is all you require for these two birds. I remember the TAS60 dishes sky supplied just before launch. Consisted of a small arm for mounting the LNb for 28e. | ||

Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | The Triax multiblock will fit most dishes if turned upside down and use one of the holders to clamp onto the focal one. Sometimes necessary to 'thin' one of the holders though. | ||
