[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 670088, member: 325666"] Still too cold outside for serious tweaking ... ..a light dusting of snow during the night.. Anyway ..I did venture out with ladders and a tape measure. I've ajusted the front edge of the waveguide to what I 'believe' to be the correct distance from the dish face centre (81cm as calculated by me last year) and set the scalar plate to 42 on its embossed scale.. which I believe is closest approximated fd of this dish. If anyone knows the true figures for a 6 petal solid Alcoa dish I'd be very interested.. Anyway ...didn't hang about in the cold as I suddenly felt the need for a bacon butty.. A quick check on the HDCI2000 on 1 west shows the signal quality to have risen again on Pentagon ..from 31 - 32 on a cloudless day (yesterday) to 35 - 36 today and the skies are no longer clear. I also checked RTB on 24.5W .. this too had risen from 10 to 17 .. Still can't get anything at all on ORTM. Are the settings at lyngsat still correct ? If so ..I have a real puzzle to solve. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
