Help with LNB Skew

[.: JaCkPoT :.]

everyone is entitled to their opinion/way of doing things and its up to the OP who,s advice he follows... ive always set my lnb to zero on a motorised dish as the dish alters the skew when it turns the dish as it also tilts it aswell as moving it left/right on the horizontal plain. ideally dishes should have a seperat magnetic/mechanical skew poloriser like back in the day to squeeze every drop of signal out of the dish by peaking the H or V probe but generally the system works well. when using a fixed dish the skew needs to be set as its set vertical/horizontal so it has to be set according to the recieving sites lat/long and the sats position on the geostationary arc. regards mdt

I wasnt suggesting the LNB be turned upside down, my posts clearly state that if there is a difference, it will be slight! I agree that with 0 skew it will work fine, but my suggestion was there to help increase the signal that little more.

you put your LNB Skew in, Lift the Motor Tail up in out in out shake it all about you mess with the elevation and you turn it upside down and thats what its all about oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh oakey cokey

Haha -_- stop with the post clocking now
No hard feelings if you disagree with me, or i disagree with you (although i dont, i was merely suggesting)

No Hard feelings either way just thought a little light hearted banter would diffuse the situation a little, As previously suggested what works for yourself or anyone else then no problem

A lot of hot air over a LNB. If you use the right size dish and a decent LNB. Set it up on 0.8, and the signal should be good enough for a excellent picture on Sat's for the dish size in Britain, and any messing about will not make any more difference to the picture. After all you should be watching the TV and not an test instrument.
