My System: IDD CI24 ECONO MM Penta 1.20 Galaxy II 1.2Mtr Polar MTG yes it has been on the arc for 21 years and is still driven by a modified wiper motor from a Ford Anglia. It's like me sometimes groans but always performs

Thanks in advance.
The skew on a Sky dish is normally fixed, as it is normally used for a single satellite at 28 deg East the skew is different depending on which satellite you are wanting to receive. Also remember as 2CVbloke says the satellites are on the Clarke Curve and if you could see them they would appear in an arc from East horizon to the western horizon so you would have to alter the elevation for a satellite nearer your due south satellite
