[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 905355, member: 176362"] Its a low cost & somewhat problematical botch job rather than installing proper inclined satellite tracking on your dish. You mount 2 lnb's over/under shotgun style stacked one above the other so they are set up vertically instead of horizontally. As the sat drifts off the arc north you switch to the top lnb. As it comes back across the arc heading south you switch to the other one. 31A probably isnt inclined enough atm to make it worthwhile as you would lose an awful lot of the day when the bird is in the dead area between the two. However if you have time and some spare lnb's you certainly arent going to lose anything doing some experimenting! [/QUOTE]
