Quick question, is a 60cm dish big enough to get a good signal for 19e and 13e with a monoblock LNB? Any advise on the Monoblock, seen on ebay for around £25 for 0.3dB 4 degree. Dishes around £25 high gain.
 
For those two sats, both of which are pretty powerful 60 cm will probably be fine but for safety I would go 80cm as we get a lot of cloudy weather in the UK and you may end up wanting a third :cool:
You do however need a 6 degree separation not 4 degrees
 
You can do 13 and 19 on a 60cm easy. You need to check what size dish the monoblock is set for though as quite a few are set for 80cm dishes and would give a differant seperation on a 60cm because of the focal length. I just used 2 single lnb's on a bracket works fine all weathers.
