[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 656331, member: 323322"] If you fitted the Octo to an existing dish,the additional weight of the Octo might have flexed the LNB arm down sufficiently to take it to the margin - this can be corrected by increasing the dish elevation very slightly to compensate. Before you slacken any bolts, do check, using a "buddy, which way the dish is out by gently pressing on the LNB arm. Correct dish accordingly. Treat bolts to a dose of WD40 or similar some time before attempting any adjustment! Also, as you are going to be running new cables for the "new" ports, consider replacing the single existing one while you are in the process ............... Edit: Just seen Robbo's comment about Octo weight - consider it seconded! [/QUOTE]
