[QUOTE="a33, post: 1104062, member: 332642"] I wonder how you did this? Normally, when you aim the LNB higher (while in the current LNB-holder), also the feedhorn phase center moves a bit upwards. And from what I've learned till now, phase center position is more important than precise aiming angle of the LNB. So I really wonder if in your case the new aiming is better, or the new phase center position is better. Otherwise, after aiming higher, you'd have to have had the elevation tweaked again, I would think. Apart from that, as far as I know, when the illumination angle of the LNB allows it, [B]aiming a bit above the G-spot[/B] normally gives a bit better reception. (The G-spot is the place on the dish, where the angle from focus to top and bottom of the dish is halved. So it is still some distance below the deepest point.) So normally I advise to aim at the G-spot, or a bit above that. Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
