Hi All! I just wish to collect ideas on the ways how to point the feed (LNB or LNBF) from it's position towards the dish. Some people (I am one of them) use laser-pointers installed in the LNB-holder to see where is LNB is really pointed. Some people use piece of plastic pipe or even piece of wood installed instead of the LNB to see the real pointing line. But my question here would be what would be the best way to do the feed-pointing check? Is that can be something very simple installed instead of the LNB? Should that be something with rotating mechanism to show some laser marks on the surface of the dish? On the picture attached I have collected some of the parts which I've used to point the LNB. But, in reality, is not that enough to have some universal piece of plastic which can be placed in 40mm or 63mm LNB holder with the laser pointer in the middle to see where exactly LNB is pointed? So, I would be interested in users thoughts on the ideal feed-pointer device.
