[QUOTE="barrykap, post: 46517, member: 179845"] Hi All, Just an update on my own problem. I got it all set up eventually. But strangely, the figures I got from the above site were way out. I ended up just blindly swinging the dish to get Astra2 on the end LNB then manually adjusting the LNB spacings and skew angles etc. In the end I got everything spot on. Good idea about mounting an LNB upside down as I wondered about trying that for an 'end Sat' that is below the skew angle. Incidentally I think the actual LNB holders are crap. Once you tighten one up and if you have to adjust the swing angle later the screw will tend to enter it's original 'thread' and so the LNB will swing back again. I have removed all the screws from mine and instead used a loctite plastic adhesive, which sets pretty fast and hard and if you do need to adjust it later it is easy to scrape off clean. Cheers Barrykap. [/QUOTE]
