[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1146443, member: 176704"] Also, you may not have realised that Astra 1 and Hotbird will appear to be at different heights in your sky, so that you actually have to very slightly twist the monobloc in the dish LNB holder in order to receive both at the same time - that's called the "skew" - and so, whilst looking at the dishface from the LNB position, you have to twist it so that the one for 19E is slightly higher than the one for 13E because of the "mirror effect" of the dish as the 19E position is the lower one in the sky.
