Recommend me a procedure to adjust Dish LNB for fringe reception

stvy

Hi,

I have an Andrew Channel Master 1.2m with a feedhorn a 0.3dB invacom C120 LNB and Dreambox 7020-s.

I have it pointed at Astra 2D 28.2E and I am located in Bergen Norway. In good weather I get a BER of zero. However in EXTREMELY heavy rain and cloud the signal can degrade to picture breakup.

Is there any way I can attenuate the signal so that I can more accurately tweak the alignment of the dish and rotate the LNB to maximise the SNR? I don't really want to be out there in the rain.....

Thanks,

Stvy

You can partially cover the dish with a large wet towel, or perhaps half of the LNB with a wet cloth.
