    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    I am only after 13, 19 and 28, so it should be ok for what I want.

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    The picture is a little misleading, the bar has a fair amount of tilt on it, but the dish is well above the gutter level and the picture was taken from the ground at a distance. Dish was aligned on 19.2E, so signal there is all good, then tried to get 13E and as no luck with that (in the...

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    I don't recall seeing any bolts to adjust the skew of the dish. 4 to mount the dish face to the back plate, 2 to hold the backplate to the mounting bracket and 2 to adjust elevation, 1 to hold the lnb arm in place and then 2 U bolts to mount it on the pole.

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    Sorry forgot to reply to you. I don't really want to buy another dish, already bought 2 to try and get this setup working, and that Technisat dish isn't cheap iirc. I looked at the T90 but seems they are expensive and a pain in the a** to setup and i'd have to change the pole and mount for...

    Yeh I did see those, but seem to be discontinued and ideally need twin output anyway.

    I did think about that, but can't see how it would work any better tbh as 13E and 19.2E would still need to be pushed as close together as possible, and wouldn't it just make 28.2E almost impossible to get decent signal on again ?

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    Yes I took the skew into account and tried the suggested skew for my location, and also tried various other skew settings on all 3 lnb's.

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    It is a Mk4 Zone 2, 56cm x 76cm iirc when I measured it before putting it up a few weeks back (sold as a triax, but couldn't see any branding on the dish when it arrived, other than Sky2 on the lnb arm). The Triax 80cm was 79cm x 71cm iirc.

    Advice Needed 13E, 19.2E and 28.2E on a Zone 2 or Triax 80cm

    Currently I have a 1.2m channel master motorised dish installed about 13 years ago, however tree's are now too tall and block everything from 53E to 1.9E during the summer. In the winter I get 28.2E, 13E, 9E, 4.8E and some of 19.2E back, most of the others are still missing or very very weak...

    Sky uk end service 2027 or 2028

    What you say makes sense, but........ If there is no satellites up there to provide the service, then the subscribers only have 2 choices, they switch or they go without.

    Doesn't stop them reducing the channels available or only adding new ones to streaming services only though.

    Ok not completely useless then, I thought that dvb-t was completely disabled on it.

    The problem with Glass is, if you don't renew, you have to buy a new tv as it becomes all but useless otherwise.

    Then it would be too expensive for anyone to buy it. 2GB ram and 16GB flash without the pre-installed NMVe would have kept the price sensible and still been a nice upgrade.
