[QUOTE="Llew, post: 899515, member: 175007"] It's certainly in an odd position, probably some kind of lens effect, yes. Certainly not true to what we would think is correct regarding 'line of sight' from port to dish. And in this position I get at least 2dB extra compared to not using the ring. Looking into the port, the right hand inner section of the ring is touching the 2/3 feed ring, and the left hand is at least 3mm away from the feed ring. So the brass ring seems to be looking more to the left of the dish, i.e 'skewed' rather than aligned to the port, if you're looking into the face of the dish. The dish is absolutely spot on 19E, so it's not as if the LNB is incorrectly aligned. Sorry for such a convoluted answer, hope it makes sense. [/QUOTE]
