Hi friends,
I have got a dish now aligned to 68.5*E, and wondering if its possible to fix additional C' band lnb to track 66*E Intelsat17. I dont want to loose Intelsat10 after going for Intelsat-17.
Any tips or ideas easily done; Hope our experts can guide me in this part..?
Thanks in advance.

Doesnt it catch 1.5 degree distance satellite like KU lnb. Example is Dish TV + DD Direct satellite catch by Dish TV dish which distance is only of 1.5 degree. Doesnt it happen with C band lnb?
Thanks.

Tried last night to get both 68 and 66 on same dish, but cudnt succeed. I fixed the dish pointed to 66 only for the time being. Happy though, as i got the max signal for 66, as never before. Getting 11 or more TP's with full signal with total 132 Channels now. :happy:
@Vinay, Again thanks for your tips as surely it will help many. I may try it out later, after drilling the second scalar ring and fix it together. 68*E (Intelsat10) does not carry much channels that I watch/intersted. But good to have it for tracking purposes. Peppers and one another tamil music channel is there and i like to have it. I think i will also try to go for 75 or Thaicom later, on the same 66 dish.
Regards,
