1.8m would do provided you're in Nigeria,you're lnb would also require a di-electric plate.

Remember R=V,L=H....good luck

A Prime focus dish is a reflector
whereby the waves received are
concentrated on a central point in front
of the dish. The prime focus is usually
on the same plane as the most central
point on the reflector itself. It can also
be viewed as a concave reflector like
the image below tries to explain.
.
First Pic: 1.8m Prime Focus
2nd Pic : 2.4m Prime Focus
3rd Pic: 60cm Offset
.
Prime Focus dishes are usually big 1.8m and above, and the lnbf is usually at the centre.. hence they are perfect for receiving cband frequencies
.
The other type of dish is the offset dish.. i.e Normal DStv and Strong dishes usually not more than 1m in size .

I can't say on all authority that it can be combined (although I think it should be possible to combine since their difference with Nigcomsat is 3 degrees). But in the meantime if you want to nail it, just pull your the dish slightly downwards (say less than 2cm) from the Nigcomsat position and you'll hit it.

@Ojolfc you may want to try placing the lnb on the 42e to see if it's possible to nail it

I don't mean to kill the optimism but due to the low signal of Nigcomsat in recent times,trying to nail both with one lnb my be disastrous for the Nigcomsat and not all TPs would pop out for the TSTV...hopefully they don't disappear again as usual.

Did you check the pictures especially the fourth one very well. Don't be a doubting Thomas or are you a DSTV agent.

Even if I find myself buying anything dstv in my dream, I will quickly shout Holy Ghost fire and wake up and begin to rebuke the dream. I am always praying that TStv comes back with full force one day amd I believe that God is about to answer my prayer.
