[QUOTE="MarsBar, post: 1098695, member: 409749"] In Norway, I assume this is only 2 deg so it should simply be installed straight up. I have tried to rotate it a few degees, but no effect. Question: If you use a motorised setup, Goto-X, offset dish, is this angle constant for all satellite positions? Or do it differ slightly? I have a motorised setup, and I have used a table to install the correct angles etc. Works great! But I have now got hold of a 1,2m dish, I am tempted to install this fixed as it is quite heavy. The motor says max. 1.2m. (Picture below of the motor) When the motor rotates, it's no longer straight as it follows an eclipse. Hence the tilt of the LNB will differ. Heading straight south it's pretty much upwards. I assume this is correct. Now if I install the dish without a motor, it will no longer tilt, and then I assume I have to adjust the LNB? [/QUOTE]
