This way up \!/

Just wondering, 1.2m Fibo,....see the silver colored plate that fixes between the main reflector and the mount brackets....there is a notch in it......should this be at the top or bottom. It could be vital to get right to get a correct inclination reading off the back of the reflector.

Hi Andy

Although I haven't got a 1.2 myself,I've been looking at some drawings and photo's and am almost certain itshould be at the top.

You'd probably be better off using a sat meter or even your receiver for getting your angles right, rather than using the guide on reflector.
