[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 756761, member: 301161"] Those numbers aren't related to an offset dish with a conical feed. I've found the feed works best adjusted to about 32. It would probably be easier to make something from scratch. That will never work. You will be about 7º below the arc. I don't understand what you mean here. Best thing would be forget USALS for your C-band LNB and just set it up DiSEqC 1.2 on each satellite. With your Black Ultra for Ku band and the conical feed for C-band on the 1.2m dish you are going to need to move the dish about 7º when switching from Ku to C-band to still be aligned on the same satellite. And even though C-band alignment is not as critical as Ku, you still want to get as close as possible to perfect alignment especially when you are already using an undersize dish and an offset LNB.
