[QUOTE="lutek lobster, post: 69773, member: 185772"] Hi, I live in Central Europe, splitting my time between warsaw and nthn poland. At one, I have a skybox and card where I happily receive everything except astra 2d stuff. So I guess this dish is aligned to 19.2E? At the second location, there is no sky box, just some generic receiver, and I get lots of German channels, I think the dish is aligned to 28.2 E ? My questions are (and the first is really dumb): 1) In warsaw, whenever I move, my sat guy always checks the line of sight to the south - why does he do this if the sky dish needs to collect a 19.2E signal (although the dish is pointed south)? Am I mixing up concepts? 2) If I wanted to temporarily re-allign my dish in Nthn Poland to 19.2E from what I assume is the current 28.2e alignment (and move my skybox from warsaw), how difficult would it be to manually move the dish, and would I need any special equipment (no satellite guys are available in the middle of Nthn Poland!) in order to get the compass reading?
