[QUOTE="Tom34, post: 23314, member: 175433"] I've got a Zehnder dish, the 28° LNB is centered on the arm, the holder for 19°E consists of 2 Alu-brackets on a Alu-strip (see pic), positioning for Astra 1 is not so critical... I used the original multifeed holder to attach the 13° LNB to the 19° LNB. That's one of the reasons why Hotbird reception is not good. Aligning the dish on 28.2E is very critical, a few millimeters make the difference between clear picture and a distorted picture (sound breaks and pixels) My dish is placed in the garden, so adjusting is relatively easy (as well as me bumping into it with the lawnmower :) ) and I can wipe off the water from my LNB if necessary, which may be a bit difficult for you (3 meters above ground). Using my Skybox's (Panasonic) reception meter didn't work well, it's reacting too slow... [/QUOTE]
