Hi I have found 19e but need 28.2e if I stand behind the dish do I move it left or right to find 28.2e could someone please let me know as I cant suss it out thanks.
 
Set your location here and set 19e and then put 28.2 to see if it goes right or left

Facing the dish the lnb needs to be swung right (probably about 3 times the width of the lnb face, and down a bit)
 
Mark the bolts/ dish frame up with a blob of paint, or even tippex before you start. Then if you get hopelessly lost you can quickly reset and start again.

The quick way to move around the arc is to find the free Dutch channels on 23.5E - they are nice and strong on 11914H 27500 3/4 and once you have found them you are near enough halfway there.
 
You may also want to apply a tad more LNb skew once locked onto 28e. Twist the LNb within it's holder to maximize signal).
 
Thank you everyone for your help I aligned the dish today moved it to left and down also used dispointer very usefull site cheers for the tip also adjust skew to 7 o clock got 98 signal 86 quality on frequency 10773H/22000 West Midlands is this good enough for a sky dish Once again thank you everyone for your helpfull input.:-righton
 
Well done:-handclap
 
Sound like an excellent signal. The signal strength meters are indicative rather than proper meters - line 5 boxes up and you will get 5 different readings on the signal meters!

Well done on getting your desired signals - now make sure you nip all the bolts up tight - and mark the dish bolts and frame so if the dish does move you can quickly sort it :)
