Installing 91 97 110 119 on a 36" dish

[zaqoqi]

Hey guys, just move to a new location and been trying for 2 days but no luck, i would like to install 91 97 110 and 119 using magic bracket on a 36" dish.

i can get all signals without a problem if i do each lnb alone, but when i combine i cant get them all together.

I need help guys, please...

once your lnbs are where they should be on the bracket, all you need to do is line up 110 and skew to pick up the rest on the clarke belt.

if you could visually see all the satellites in the sky, you could draw a straight line through all of them. so, once you get great quality on one bird, just skew and the rest will fall into place. the key is getting the BEST quality on your "control" bird.

yea, align for 110. what kind of lnbs and / or switch are you using? this may be the issue also.

If you see them all - one at a time you'r in good shape. This means that the dish is aimed quite good, although you may need a final tweak for best reception.
Combining all together means adding a switch that will get four signals into it and output one signal to the receiver. The receiver will select one of the 4 LNBs at a time, according to the channel you want to watch.

Depending on the 36 inch dish there may not be a skew,,,,but if you are using the bracket I think you are then you just have to move each LNB holder side to sideor up & down to tweak or fine tune the signal....my 39 inch has no skew so thats how I did mine,,,I have 91W 82W(BEV HD)110W119W(DN HD I forget the bird#)and 123W Galaxy true FTA for downtime!!Hope this helps

Hey,
Thank you so much for your reply, ye my dish cannot be skewed, just been trying so much with it and still no luck having all 4 at once, especially that 97w Galaxy 25 has a very week signal so that makes it even harder, i just bought a 24" eliptical dish where it can handle the 82 91 110 119, and i will keep the 36 for the 97. i Think that would work better

if you cannot skew your dish, you might as well install a motor and see everything in the sky! it's a simple setup and it's a pretty fun install.

Zaq...I had a hell of a time with 123W galaxy,,,I ended up buying a better quality lnb(make sure you have the correct type of LNB for the Galaxy stuff,not the same as 110,119,91)now all is good.At first I was going to go with the motor but 123W has the most english channels on it so the mototr would be overkill

Hey guys, i bought a 24inch elliptical dish and put the 119/110/91 bracket there with a bit of skewing i got all working fine, and i left the 97 alone with the big dish.
But thanks alot for all your replies really appreciate your time
