[QUOTE="jleal, post: 903535, member: 175798"] Hi all, Thanks for all input given. The concrete solution seems pretty good but I think for me it's one of those things that's easier said than done. I don't know exactly what I'm going to do yet but maybe try to drill some holes on the bent reflector face of the dish and try to unbent it with the help of some threaded rods forcing the metal to come into place by using some nuts and washers. With a strip of thin sheet metal laid across the bent surface and being pushed with the help of the threaded rods. I thought of doing this having the dish pointed to 28.2E. I would use signal level to tighten or unthighten the washers that would move the threaded tods and push or pull the metal strip. Is this clear or what?:blink: [USER=297935]@satesco[/USER]: Why the TBS 6983? Is it because the sensitivity of the tunner? I didn't find any info on bent dishes. [/QUOTE]
