Titanium satellite has a Combo (CK1S), to which you can fit a conical scalar. This may work to some degree, but remember the scalar is different for C and Ku band, so it will be a compromise design.
This may work for normal TV watching, but if you are motorising and/or feed-hunting anyway, I would think you're better off with an off-set C-band mouned slightly left or right of the center Ku.
With an offset dish like the CM design, you might get better results fitting the second (C band ) LNB, above the Ku though you will have to fit a second motor to move the reflector to the correct point.
If you have the money and space, put up a second dish.

Well... classical case of editorial integrity.
One wonders what else has been written by whom?
Was acually somewhat upset by not so much the editing, but more that no-one owed up to having pressed the wrong button or whatever.
If not the moderator in question, then at least the editor-in-chief should look upon this with grave attention, and go dig in the logs to clarify and action somthing.
Have actually felt slightly restrained lately about posting - I somehow feel a slight loss of honesty and integrity.

Hmm that might have been me, it should have been a reply to the o/p, with just the two last paragraphs. The ‘editing’ part would , or should have been just a spelling correction of my own text, not including a previous post.
I have been using an exceedingly small screen when posting out of doors , an iPod nano 6, which comes complete with a ‘finger trouble’ keypad
