Vietnamese channels on 97 & 101

I have a 30" dish and a CoolSat 5000. I'm receiving 97 now. I want to add another LNB to receive 101. Which sat should I point the dish at to get the best signal quality from both? Will strapping the LNB's together be enough to get both or do I need a better way of adjusting the LNB's?

why not add a motor and get all the sat's.

I have 2 receivers hooked up to that dish. A motor would not work.

have you thought of using a toroidal dish. they will receive multi. sat's.

Yeah, I would love to have one of those but can't afford one at this time.

I am planning to upgrade eventually to dual Ku LNB. One output will go through a motor, another will bypass it, making only one receiver to drive a dish. Please, enlighten me, what could be wrong with this setup?
If you don't want a motor, you need a bracket of some sort to hold two LNBs.
Here is what Google brought me after searching for "LNB bracket 97 101":
