[QUOTE="Limulus, post: 762168, member: 376141"] Hi, I'm looking for an installer who could put up an 80 cm dish with two LNBs - one pointing at 28.2 and one at 19.2. The property is located close to Dundee. There is currently a 60 cm dish on the building picking up Astra 2 on a South facing wall 5m above ground. I'm not sure if the same location is also suitable for 19.2, as there are quite a few tall trees in the vicinity that my obstruct the satellite. According to my (amateur) calculations, the satellite may just clear the trees by about 1m, but if my estimate of the tree height is off, then it may just be below the crowns. It's thus possible that the installation site would have to be moved onto the roof/chimney stack with some restrictions there as well, as the house is located in a conservation area. I haven't bought the dish/LNBs yet since I was hoping to find a professional installer in my area who would be able to do the job, and could be convinced more easily if they'd be able to buy the dish themselves. However, not one of the installers I've contacted was able to fit more than one LNB on a dish. So I'm somewhat at a loss.
