you would never be able to get 97w and 123w both on a stationary 30-33 inch dish with quality good enough for regular viewing.....the further your LNBs are off center of the dish, the more the Q drops.....this is even more noticeable on the "H" TPs cause they are affected more as you get closer to the edge of the dish.....and the focal point gets smaller and smaller.....

i have managed to get these two birds on a stationary 1.2m dish using a fully adjustable LNB bracket.....i pointed the dish at 110W first then lowered the elevation by about 4-5 degrees.....i then removed the 110 lnb and mounted two linear LNBs (one on each side of the main holder)......no lnb in the main holder (on the arm)......

i will warn you ahead of time.....this was EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to aim these LNBs even for somebody who is VERY experienced as myself.....unless you have ALOT of experience aiming dishes then i would not even recommend trying this......it is very time consuming and frusterating......

as others have said, you might wanna consider a motor......
