[QUOTE="cwsat, post: 1144821, member: 417967"] The problem with having 13e,16e and 19.2e on a dish is how close the sats are. As 13e and 19.2e are so strong, they over power 16e so you need a decent sized dish to get it in the first place. I have tried with a 65cm dish and failed miserably trying to get 16e, with a single LNB. I know it's possible but I have never managed it myself. I am not actually too sure how robust 16e would be on a standard 80cm dish. The 85cm Gibertini I am using now is actually 90x85cm and performs pretty well on 16e, plenty of rain margin on 10845H. I have never lost reception in the rain. Ideally you need a a minimum of a conventional 80cm dish with bulletnose LNB's. Normal LNB's on 13e,19.2e and 16e will clash. Inverto do a triple monoblock which I have myself, but it didn't particularly perform that well on my 85cm Gibby so I took it off and it's in a drawer. Is there a reason you wouldn't want to go motorised? I messed about with the monoblock but in the end wanted 1w, 28.2e and 23.5e and some of the stronger feeds off 10e/7e so picked up a cheap diseqc motor. Not looked back since, really makes life easier. Took a bit of tweaking but got there in the end. There are some really good performing single / twin output LNB's too. [/QUOTE]
