Hello

I am looking for help and advices from people who have already installed this kind of antenna.
I have a Wavefrontier T90 fixed on a wall.
On the same location I had previously a single LNB 80 cm dish. This dish recieved without problem Astra 19.2, 28 and Hotbird.

I plan the set-up of my T90 in order to have hotbird 13 as the central sat. So I install my LNBs and tried to point the dish toward hotbird using my usual satellite finder device.
For more than one hour I tried wihtout no result to change the azimuth and elevation. The finder didn't react at all.
I think that during all my tries the LNB should have get some sat signal and the finder should have react. But I got strictly nothing.

I put the detail of my instalation and pictures on a web site _http://www.jmnil.net/sat/sat.htm

Having no signal at all let me think that I just forgot or have done something stupid. I hope that from the pictures somebody can say me what.

thanks in advance

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Have you reconfigured the DiSEqC settings for 13 East ?

An obvious point but the LNB arm of the dish above has to knock out some signals on one or more satellites ....and is the ultimate offset angle on those different than a normal offset*... & what's in front of the dish?

mind you the angle of the sats will still be the same ...
