Hello, I have two multistars 39 inches dishes on my roof, one on galaxy 10r 123 w and the other on ai5 97. I was wondering if that you be possible to add other lnbs on those dishes to receive other satellites. I heard it's possible with ai5 and amc4. Is the signal will remain good and could you tell me witch interesting satellites I could add to my dishes without adding more dishes..thanks you...
 
I don't think it would be worth adding a "wing" LNB to the satellite dish pointing at G10R at this time, but would be fun to simply zip tie a 2nd KU LNBF to the LEFT side (from behind dish) of the Main (IA-5) KU LNBF. May take some tweaking but you should be able to get a signal from AMC-4 with a 39" dish.

There are also TWO LNBF brackets available but being unfamiliar with your dish you would have to make sure it will work with your style of satellite dish, a few examples/idea's below..........

Do you think that you be possible to add two lnbf to the dish on ai5... one on galaxy3c 95 w and the other on amc4??? Just want to know if it's possible before buying the lnbf...thanks
 
No G3C(95w) is too close to IA-5(97w) : ( They need to be at least 4 deg. apart!
 
Thanks for the anwwer, .... For amc4 Would it be very hard to get both signals..ia5 and amc4...A friend of mine said he just taped with duck tape a second lnbf to the left of the one pointing on ai5 and that'it no ajustment needed??? What do you think??
 
I would give it a try, zip tie should work or as Iceberg does try a hose clamp from the hardware store!
 
Hose clamp might work just fine...I'll try that ...Thanks
