In trying to pick up AMC 3 and AMC 4 with same dish and single LNB, I get very confusing results. strange cut offs and fades in. I am told that to do this with 95 cm dish I need to use a .2 LNB, but can not find any that advertise .2 universal where are they??
 
no way you can get AMC3 & 4 on the same dish
AMC3 is at 87W
AMC4 is at 101W

now maybe G25 (97W) and AMC4 on one dish
 
Neither AMC 3 or 4 would require the use of a universal lnb, a standard one will work fine. Im not sure what the .2 lnb refers to but AMC3 and AMC4 are 14 degrees apart, you would need two lnbs assuming a fixed dish, or one lnb and a motor. If you were refering to the noise level of the lnb, I would not worry so much about that as I would the quality of the lnb itself.
 
I agree with Ghia... Noise factor alone will not be as important as LNB L.O. stability and build quality. These noise factor numbers are usually fudged, and a .6 LNB can often outperform a .3...

Your dish should be large enough, but as stated above, you will not be able to receive both on the same dish without using a motor.
