My Satellite Setup
Astra 19.2E and Astra 28.2 Azbox premium HD
My Location
Germany
At this moment i have one monoblock LNB which are pointing to 19.2 Astra and 13 Hotbird. Can i buy one more monoblock lnb and a two lnb holder and point to
1st monoblock to 23.2 and 19.2 astra
2nd monoblock 13 hotbird and eurobird 9a

Is this possible, if yes what do i need(multifeed lnb)???

Monoblocs are fixed at 6 degrees between the two horns so 13E Hotbird and Eurobird 9A would be OK but not the other.

Apart from that I'm not sure that DiSeqC can cope with that combination even through a supplementary DiSeqC switch.

You might be able to use your single Monobloc as it is and add two separate LNBs running them all through a DiSeqC switch.
 
Yes a Duo LNb with 4.3° spacing would be fine for 23e /19e but you may be better off with separate LNb's on an offset bracket feeding a DiSEqC switch.
 
Hi Guys

I got a Monoblock LNB with 6 degree spacing, which you can use for Astra 19 and Hotbird 13. Do you think you can use that LNB to get Eurobird 9 and Hotbird 13? I am asking this, because mathematically you would need al monblock lnb with 4 degree spacing. But here in Swiss, it's hard to get a 4 degree spacing monoblock lnb.

For info: My dish size is 80cm.
 
No good for that combination, have a look at our forum supporting advertisers, several of them carry 4 degree monoblocs and will ship to Europe.
 
I found one with 4.3 degree spacing. It's for Astra 13.2 and 23.5. Do you think that would work?
 
The only problem you'll have is combining the feeds from both monoblocs, not too difficult with one, but two changes things. Which receiver are you using?
 
You will need a diseqc 1.1 switch to switch between the two monoblocks, also the receiver must be capable of diseqc 1.1 and diseqc 1.0 , and send the diseqc 1.1 command first.
