LNBF combination on diseqc

[Brava27]

Hello!
I current have a 33' dish and would like to add 4 lnb.
Can I combine 2 regular circular lnb with another dishpro single lnbf? Would this work or affect the switch?

Thanks

I would keep them all the same type, less possible problems, and less hair loss.

All DP singles or all standard, but don't try a mix, you may have problems.

And a round 33" dish may have problems with trying to get 4 satellites, the two outside LNB's may have signal problems, an elliptical dish would be a better choice, say a 24x33.

I ended up with a big dish and so far I tried 3 lnb's and so far so good. 82 110 and 119. Would it be too much to ask for 129 too?

47 degrees between the two outside satellites is a bit too much for a round dish, it may be outside it's receive beamwidth, it may work but it may be starved for signal.

Look here for an active footprint on 129W, you can zoom into your location and click on it, this will give you an idea on the dish size for your area, if it says you need a bigger then normal dish you may have problems.

110-119-129 are perfect for your dish. In GTA get all 3 on 18" dish!
