Thank you all
Now ,I know it s all because of the monoblock & the fact I put 16E on position 2,
so I could get 9E on position 1
9E comes in strong,has interesting channels (French-speaking African nations; Angola,hungary etc..).
16E is mainly Slavic languages ,so I "mis treated " it putting it on the de-centered lnb.

Is the dish pointing to 16°E or 9°E? If it isn't the former then that's your problem.

since ,when using astra/hotbird pointing,it s on hotbird 13E,with the "astra1 19 E" lnb off-set,or clamped;
then, when pointing at 9E and 16E ,the dish is pointing at 9E

Not necessarily - depends which head you have got clamped.

Why bothering with a monoblock since you can have 7 LNB ?

28°E - 19°E - 16°E - 13°E - 9°E - 7°E

what about the level of signal loss?
Interference between transponders same frequency,different sats?

According to the datasheet, the centauri has larger loss: 5dB vs. 3dB and is much more expensive.
I have 3 centauris. They work fine, even in combination with a long cable. Because they are big,
it is also easy to attach and detach cables.

However, this Vyzion switch does not seem very practical for outdoor use with cables on all 4 sides.
Or do I miss something?

Signal strength will drop but more importantly signal quality will not. Interference between inputs shouldn't be a problem either.

If you have good quality then strength doesn't matter.
