[QUOTE="Ron-ski, post: 1101427, member: 416112"] Thanks for the replies, the bird spikes are polycarbonate, chosen as I thought it shouldn't affect the signal, but could well be wrong. I can't remember whether I skewed the LNB or not, its too long ago. I'll have to see if I can find my meter and if the weathers good next weekend, I'll try skewing the LNB a bit more and check the connections are good, unless somebody in the mean time knows of someone local who can check. I'm pretty sure the tree's are not an issue, dishpointer says the satelite dish should have an elevation of 26.1 degree's, so if I'm understanding correctly that means the dish should be pointing upwards at 26.1 degree's. So tree's 50 metres away would need to be in excess of 29 metres tall to obstruct the signal of a dish mount at about 5 metres high, which they are not. [/QUOTE]
