LBN placement for 82.0 & 91.0 (Nimiq2 & 1,3)

[kaash]

If looking from the back of a dish, which LNB (right or left) should point at 82.0 & 91.0?

your response would be gr8ly appreciated.
thanks

91 on left, 82 on right

When you work with multiple LNB's they go opposite of the way they are in the sky. In the sky 91 is west of 82 but with multiple LNB's the signal bounces off the dish and hits the LNB opposite of their way in the sky. So thats why 91 is to the left of 82 in this case

thanks ICE. Now it makes sense

just curious...does the same theory apply for 119 & 110?

yes

it works with any set of multiple LNB's

here is an example of my Toroidal T90 dish. Yes the LNB's face different but the principle still applies. the closest LNB is 119 and the farthest away is 72

no problem

Its kinda nice to have my Dish subscription(110/119), StarChoice subscription (107.3) and a few other free to air satellites all on one dish
