SuperDish Setup Question

No.

110, 119, 61.5, 148 are DSS. The 110/119 pair can be grabbed with a single dish - a 500. The others take a 300 - OR if you've got a spare 500, that can be used - if you account for it in the aiming.

105 & 121 are FSS - which require a large dish.

Different type of LNBFs are required for the two types of bird.

So what you are saying is, that it's impossable to put three DSS lnb's on a superdish? (110,119,148) I find this hard to believe so an any explanation would be great.
 
Angles. Pure geometry is why.

The sat locations are degrees. 119 deg is 29 degrees away from 148. One reflector won't work.

Okay then that makes since. What is the widest angle of view that a superdish CAN see? (degree's wise)
 
Well, a 105 SD can see to 119, so that's 14 degrees.

However, the 105 LNB is "center" and 110/119 are to one side. So, you should be able to fabricate a mount for something DSS on the other side and get to 91.
 
Technically, it MAY Be possible to do it, but it would require a custom setup. D*'s 3 sat dish has the 101/110/119. That's 18 degrees of seperation. Now, you need to double that to get to the 148. since the SD is 38 inches across, and the Phase III D* dish is 20 inches, it could be done, but more than likely the signal would not be very good. If you wish to have this much spacing on DBS, then you need to look into the torridial(sp?) dishes.
