Only a guess:  You need a second dish, with a second Quattro-??? LNB, because 
you have to calibrate this dish with its separate LNB to the second 
satellite! That's the pure science ;-))

But AFAIK there are tricky workarounds available: If you wish to receive to 
different satellites which are staying in a near position, you are able to 
receive the second  satellite with a second LNB on the same dish. The second 
LNB is mounted out of the center of the first, but in the center of the 
second satellite regarding the reflection from the dish to the LNB!

Oh oh, terrible english! No comments please! Never expected to explain such 
things in this f@%&# english! German is so easy, straight forward, and so 
on...... ;-))
