[QUOTE="a33, post: 1075450, member: 332642"] Normally (when no other text is given) a 6 degree monoblock is meant for a 80 cm dish; for what part in (western) europe it normally fits best, I don't know. The distance between feedhorns might vary a little between certain types of 6 degree monoblocks, so the one might be slightly better than the other in a certain area. The triax78 is I believe just a 70cm dish, so not really 80 cm... However with good compromising in finetuning with the 3 feeds, a[B] triple LNB[/B] for 19-23-28E for a 60cm dish performs better in the Netherlands on a triax 78 than on a triax 64 (60cm dish)! The bigger dish surface compensates more than enough for the slight misalignment of the feeds. When you use a 16/1 diseqc1.1 (uncommitted), and then the monoblock, which switches on diseqc 1.0, you've built a diseqc cascade (serial setup of switches)! [SIZE=3](With an 'option switch' or with other 'tricks' you could also cascade with another diseqc 1.0 (committed) switch; but when you have a diseqc 1.1 switch and your receiver can manage diseqc 1.1, that is not so relevant.)[/SIZE] Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
