I've got an 80cm Triax which is currently focused on 1w. I want to buy a Triax multi LNB holder and set the dish up for 13, 19, 23 & 28e. I have a zone 2 which can take over 1w duties.
I've used the zone 2 on 1w before and it gets all transponders just like the Triax. It even pulls in a stronger signal on some transponders than the Triax while on other transponders the Triax performs slightly better. It just seems more sensible doing a multi LNB setup with the Triax.
I'm expecting the spacing between 19 & 23e to be a bit of a squeeze. I've got a couple of Octagon Optima slimline LNB's which should hopefully do the job.
I'm wondering if it'd be asking too much to squeeze a fifth LNB on for 16e? I realise these are sold as 3° to 20° spacing brackets but would 3° be possible on a dish the size of mine?
There also doesn't seem to be anywhere selling 5 way Triax multi brackets so I assume I'd have to buy two and pinch a holder off the second one?
