My System: 3 lnb dreambox 500 |
Hi all! I living in Reading at the moment and have a question about setting up my dish and LNB's I see what you have is the same as what I like... Astra 2, Astra 1 and Hotbird Can you tell me how far your lnb's are appart from one and another? I seem to have only the Astra 2 and Astra 1. They are 7.5 cm appart pointing the middle one to the astra 2 the 3th lnb is not yet setup. This is what I have: ArchSat Elliptical 75x65 cm 3x Singel LNB 0.2 Db Dreambox 500s Tx for your help By the way: I'll post some pic's later | ||

My System: Smart lnb, 1m Gibby dish, Stab motor, TM5200D receiver, 57east to 61west. DTT from Sudbury. Virgin Media broadband. | I've just had a word with my brother Northants, I set his up as follows on an 80cm dish. !9east as main focus, 13east LNB just a fraction apart from the 19 east LNB and slighty lower. The 28east LNB is 3 fingers width apart from the central LNB and slightly higher. parky | ||

Not only does the setup look good the grape vine looks healthy as well
