Hi
I have just bought a 90cm Triax dish with a grey 0.6 MTI LNB. I am a bit of a newbie at this. There is some variation on how far the LNB should stick out from the plastic clamp. Where should it be clamped? As near to the plastic cap end as possible, in the middle or nearest the coax end??
This adjustment defines the amount that the LNB sits away from the dish so is this crucial or doesn't it matter. If it does matter where should it be?
I would try to draw what I describe but all I can come up with in text is this below. I hope you can understand it!!!!
I I----I--I--

Would be grateful of any help. At the moment I am just trying to align it without a motor...that comes later, when i have tried different sites in the garden!
