Hello, I don't know if the post it's fine or if the section is correct (if isn't the post can be removed) anyway I'm living in south west London and I have a 100cm sat dish, is pointed to Atlantic bird 3 (5w) to get multistream and I have a good signal 81% on the left I have installed a second lnb to catch also Atlantic bird 1(12.5w) but the signal is low and on the multistream frequency a haven't signal at all!! The question is is possible to have both satellite on the same dish?! I done some mistakes? Any help is appreciate as usual!! And thanks in advance

It should be possible, you should point the dish to 12.5w for a strong signal there, then try to get signal on 5w, the 5w sat is stronger signal than 12.5w (at least for me it is and were are in similar areas) or get a motor and have a load more sats to play with.....

So with your setup you have signal on frequency 12718 h 36512(abird1 12.5w)? You got as well a 100cm or less?

jenseneverest if I don't ask to much, can I see your lnb configurations if u can please!! Thanks

Are you asking a general question for diseqc switch setup?
-
No I'm asking how to configure 2 lnb to get 2 sats in the same dish. In this case abird1 e abird3 (12.5w + 5w) because I got a strong signal on 5w but low or not signal at all on 12.5

Not sure whether you are asking about hardware or software.
Hardware wise:
Tweak it to get best signal. Same as for non-diseqc. Skew, how far in collar, height in relation to other LNB so that it follows arc
Software wise:
The tuner setup is the same for whichever satellites you use with a diseqc switch. You tell receiver which satellite is connected to port A, you tell it which is connected to port B.

Hi mate, i use the settings like abu baniaz posted above for my fixed dish but that covers, 13, 19, 23 and 28 east
I will test multistream with the zgemma and my motor if i get a chance tonight (my xpeed dosn't have multistream)
