[QUOTE="simonskyman, post: 133108, member: 190429"] Good advice trigger.Be careful how you handle the petals as they can bend easily.While the dish is pointing up to the sky you can see the shape of the dish and if it is deformed.Run your hand along the petal joins and feel if one is higher or lower than the adjoining petal.the problem is when the petals are in place,you cant get near the lnb to do final adjustments without touching the dish.The slightest touch moves the dish.I usually put 2 stabilisers from the horizontal part of the mount,one on each end to the ground but after the dish is aligned to maximum signal,but you have to be careful because as you tighten these,the dish/mount can pull either direction. good luck.
