[QUOTE="svedish, post: 543174, member: 299104"] Yeah, was guessing that that low number in the LNB settings (5150) was the reason for all those low frequencies in the TP scan and the absence of frequencies over 10k. To answer to rolfw, I had read that post before and realized that the only way to get the skew right was placing a laptop in front of the TV and another one near me on the roof with the webcams on and the signal quality-strenght screen up on the TV. That way I managed to skew the LNB and watch the results in real time until I found the best I could get out of it, i.e. 75-80% and yes...the angle was absolutely different from what I've read on dishpointer dot com (no live link, see? :p). By the way, just out of pure curiosity...How important is it to get the [b]main bracket perfectly vertical[/b]? I mean, if the bracket is not straight, do you screw up the whole installation completely, or is there always a chance to fix this using rotation, elevation and skew? Thanks again guys. :) [/QUOTE]
