[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 516917, member: 256551"] Hi mate, your post is a touch confusing. Are you sure you are not getting your Astras mixed up. As I read it, you have you have your dish focussed on 19.2E and you want to add a second LNB on to pick up 28.2E, is this correct? For the 2nd LNB to pick up 28.2E looking at the dish face, it has to be positioned to the left of the focus and a little higher that the focal one. The 2nd LNB should also be pointing at the same place as the main one, i.e towards the centre. Note, it is not possible to pick up the same satellite with two LNBs on the same dish, it is physically impossible, it must be a different satellite that you are picking up. (edit, this is utter tosh, please see below:) ) Also put 28E on the 1st port of the Diseqc as Sky boxes do not have Diseqc capability. The Sky box is only needed for ch5, ch4 is FTA and be got on any digital sat receiver. Robbo:) [/QUOTE]
