[QUOTE="a33, post: 1158372, member: 332642"] Eutelsat 7E seems to have the eutelsat preskew of 3.535 degrees, so both satellites have a skew of about -19 degree for you. Every "hour" of the hour hand of the clock equals 30 degrees. 'Minus' means counterclockwise when looking towards the satellite, so clockwise when looking into the dish. So the cable connector should point at a little bit less than 7 o'clock. In practice, a few degree more or less skew is not really important; unless you have very marginal reception. LNB in focal point and correct aiming of the dish are far more important. Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
