[QUOTE="bobon, post: 703944, member: 189516"] post 32 Before I could do any more, Corviello arrived. We went through the string test again and the laser alignment. He though they were both fine. He then tried adjusting the LNB orientation with his own meter. Then he noticed a strange thing. When he climbed the ladder to move the LNB, the signal level rose by about 1 dB. Coming away from the dish, it fell again. So covering up part of the left side of the dish gave a stronger signal (048.jpg). He suggested there could be an error in the azimuth setting. So we tried moving the dish. But as before, as we shifted it away from the maximum, the signal level fell. Then he moved it even more in the easterly direction. From nothing, the signal suddenly shot up to a peak far higher than before. In my first alignment, I must have been receiving the stronger signals on the first side lobe of the dish. [/QUOTE]
