[QUOTE="archive10, post: 1026145"] On OP's traditional 90 no chance. Easiest to go with two dish solution. No need for 2x90, 1W (for Canal Digital) kan be done easily on ~60 cm dish. This also what CD gives you when you sign up as regular new customer. But it can be comfortably received on a well aligned 40 cm dish, but with less rain margin. So eg if size on a balcony matters, you could add smaller dish. Even a flat one if there are restrictions on the number of dishes. But if you really wanted to it on a single dish, it can be done. The now-long-out-of-production SMW OA-1600 has a physical span of 52 degrees. It performs more or less like a 1m dish across the span. And since you can angle the lnbs for easy-to-receive sats quite a lot, I am certain 52.5e and 1w can be done. But it is a big awkward dish, and is more difficult to set up than two single dishes. On the plus side, you can probably find a used one locally, as they were made in Sweden, and still pop up occasionally on blocket and the like. [USER=312276]@RimaNTSS[/USER] has a thread elsewhere on this site documenting his installation. [/QUOTE]
