The Megasat Diavolo Twin Monoblock LNB 6° is a convenient all-in-one solution for simultaneous reception from two satellite positions separated by approximately six degrees. It is particularly suitable for the popular combination of Hotbird 13°E and Astra 19.2°E using a single satellite dish.
The LNB has two independent outputs and can be connected directly to two satellite receivers, two televisions with integrated satellite tuners or one twin-tuner receiver. Both connected tuners can independently select the satellite, polarisation and frequency band.
Its two feedhorns and integrated DiSEqC switch replace two separate LNBs, a multifeed bracket and an external DiSEqC switch. This provides a compact installation requiring fewer separate components.
With a specified noise figure of only 0.1 dB, integrated weather protection and a standard 40 mm mounting neck, the Diavolo Twin is suitable for digital satellite television and HDTV reception.

Installations with two independent viewing locations
Digital satellite television and HDTV
Systems where separate LNBs and an external DiSEqC switch are undesirable
🛰️ Satellite Combination
The LNB is designed for two satellite positions separated by approximately 6°. The most common combination is:
| Satellite position | Satellite system |
|---|
| 13°E | Hotbird |
| 19.2°E | Astra |
A suitable offset dish is required. The recommended dish size may vary according to the installation location, available signal strength and antenna design.
🔧 Connection and Operation
The monoblock is installed in the dish’s 40 mm LNB holder. Each output is connected by a separate coaxial cable to a satellite receiver or tuner.
The integrated DiSEqC switch selects between the two satellite positions. The receiver must therefore be configured with the correct DiSEqC setting for each satellite.
Both outputs operate independently. One user can, for example, watch a channel from Astra while the other watches a channel from Hotbird.
A twin-tuner receiver normally requires two separate coaxial cables from the LNB for fully independent viewing and recording.
📡 Capacity
| Installation | Capacity |
|---|
| Single-tuner receivers | Up to 2 |
| Twin-tuner receiver | 1 |
| Independent tuners | Up to 2 |
| Satellite positions | 2 |
| Physical outputs | 2 |
Please note: Capacity is calculated by the number of tuners. A twin-tuner receiver normally uses both LNB outputs.
