[QUOTE="a33, post: 1132728, member: 332642"] Well, of course, the highest point of the arc for the by-rider LNB will not be exactly correct anymore. But that will be more of a problem, when you are further away from the equator; and hardly a problem when you are near the equator, I think. A way to level out that effect to both the LNBs, would be [I]to have the highest point of the arc not at the center LNB[/I], but somewhere inbetween between the center LNB and the by-rider LNB. Or, even better (perfect!) solution: have a rotation device on the pole, to set where the mount sees its 'true south'. But to realise this, is mechanically quite a challenge, I guess. ( By the way: The same 'leveling-out solution' could be chosen for 2 LNBs above each other: not one LNB at the one and only offset angle, and the other LNB off of the proper offset angle; but both LNBs at a compromise position, a little bit off of the proper offset angle of the dish. And beware of the higher LNB taking some signal away, for the lower LNB.) Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
