[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 862134, member: 310216"] It may be that your elevation has slipped but I can't remember if 28E was your central lnb. If so it is a tad low but don't get overly obsessed about what SNR % you should be aiming for, especially if 28E isn't at focus. Try and get your switching sorted out first, the fine adjustments (height, lateral movement and skew) can be done later. Might be worth giving the end cap of the LNB a clean too, mine get covered in a slimey moss. Don't go changing screws just because they get small rusty marks on them, I'm sure they will be fine. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.... I haven't done much to mine lately as far as upgrades. Well, I did stick a piece of plastic in the Triax bar to improve the easterly elevation but that hardly counts as an upgrade. I've tested a slimline LNB in the last couple of weeks and reported back here [url]http://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/ordered-a-red-rocket.159908/[/url] [/QUOTE]
