Heres a few pics of my humble set up.
Im trying to pick up W3A 7e for broadsat sattorrent internet.I have an 80cm lidl dish hooked up to a Skystar2 pci card.The best signal that I can get is 63% quality and 8db SNR. I can only pick up this signal when the LNB's skew is at around 80 degrees (See pictures) Transponder settings are
11262Mhz
Frequency : 1512mhz
Symbol Rate : 27531kS/s
FEC : 3/4
Polarity : Horizontal/Left (High)
I was told that because the transponder is Horizontal that this is why my LNB has to be at such an extreme angle, Is this correct ? Also I get a lot of rain fade and signal drops to around 40% and SNR of 6 - 7dB and I start getting BER readings.
Anyone any Ideas what can be done ?
