Hi there,

Is it possible to get Eutelsat 21.5E & 23.5E on 1m dish?

Also, if I want to get Eutelsat 21.5E, 23.5E & Astra 28.2E and I have twin tuner box, how can I configure it to pick up the third satellite please?

Regards,

Karl

Motorised or fixed? You'll struggle with a fixed one as the satellites are just too close to each other. You maaaay be able to compromise with a slim LNB...

You'll need a DiSEqC switch to flick between the two satellites. 28.2 --> tuner 1, 21.5/23.5 --> switch --> tuner 2.

Mmm, a 3 degree monoblock for a 80cm dish would work as a 2.4 degree monoblock for a 100cm dish. That would not be ideal, but possibly it might work?

Combining a monoblock with a 28E LNB could be done with a diseqc 1.1 switch (or a modified 1.0 switch, when your receiver has diseqc repeat).
Edit: when you also want a twin monoblock, of course two switches would be needed.
And to add: with a quad monoblock, then no modification to the 1.0 switch would be needed (just the diseqc repeat from your receiver).
