[QUOTE="RimaNTSS, post: 1119585, member: 312276"] I am sure that was discussed many times in several topics. But in 2 words: From the datasheet of your antenna you have to know the position of the focal point. Then you must know the position of the phase center of your feed. After you co-locate those to points, aim the feed a little lower (approximately 10 percent) than the center of the dish. Also, from the datasheet you have to know the offset angle of the antenna. Later, you can compare this built-in offset angle to one you calculate from measuring the leaning angle of the dish when it is pointed to the satellite. [/QUOTE]
