[QUOTE="SimonleBon, post: 569062, member: 308331"] ^ You're correct, it is setup on 19.2E and the other satellites are are set, too. As the OP pointed out the Multytenne is intended for the German market, and the skew in Londen differs about 6-7 degrees with that of Germany. Here, in the Netherlands, most of the users are pleasantly surprised of the performance compared to his size. It is a very popular dish. I don't know wether the Multytennes that are sold in the UK are modified to compensate the skew difference, but if I would be located in the London I would set the wall mount under a 6 degree angle, just to be sure. Or experiment a little with the skew. Another thing you will have to be aware of is the diseqc config cos it is set up like this: 1 - Astra (19.2E) 2 - Hotbird (13.0E) 3 - Astra3 (23.5E) 4 - Astra2 (28.2E) Last thing I have to add is that the Multytenne is sensitive for rainddrops on the front of the LNB casing. Some moddified the head by fixing a piece of lexan sheet on top of the casing. Here is an example: _http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o66/SimonBueno/MultytenneLNBLexan.png [/QUOTE]
