[QUOTE="a33, post: 1096632, member: 332642"] In this case, you follow dishpointer. The easy test: enter 28E as your longitude, in the calculator. If the skew-value is then zero, no pre-skew is accounted for. In this case the skew from dishpointer says skew=7,3 (I used 28E instead of 28.2E), so the pre-skew is included. Don't think dishpointer is right always, though! All the eutelsat satellites (such as 13E) seem to have a pre-skew of 3.535 degrees, according to some rather official looking documents, but I don't think many skew calculators take that into account. The satlex calculator indicates the included and excluded preskew skew value for the astra satellites (as "special case"), so that you can see what value to use... Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
