    i doubt it as the 2 satellites are to close together. Normal spacing is 6 degrees apart but some ultra slim lnb's can do 3 degree spacing.

    hi snaps. had a idea they were too close. i connected a lnb to meter and moved around by hand beside lnb set to 26e. was getting over 40 on the quality. but the lnb was a few inches nearer the dish.

    1) A monoblock may also help you, not sure how many varying angles there are with them. However a 3 degree one may work for you, others may have experience with this and be able to give you advice.

    2) Here is also another option, they claim to be able to get satellites within 2 deg on product page, which would seem to be what you are looking for. However else where on the site they are saying 3deg.You can see this listed on hm sat site too.

    3) Here is also another form of block for mounting multiple lnb's, don't reckon it would get you satellites as clode together as the inverto product, however cheapest of 3 soloutions as you won't need to buy any new lnb's if it works.
