[QUOTE="wakel, post: 299831, member: 243641"] Thanks for your answers Simba27: thanks for the detailed answer - I've bought this setup to experiment with and realised it is limited however since we'll probably move house fairly soon I didn't want to go the whole hog immediately. Not sure I could have got a big motorised setup past my girlfriend at this point in time - however thats where I'm planning to end up! rparkera: its good to know that you get good reception - I've also managed to get Astra 1 19.2 degrees E from my bathroom window sill!!! rolfw: I'm interested in your answer. I wasn't sure exactly how to clamp the LNB on when I assembled it. I don't think the LNB is rotated at all - so I think that's OK. However I've got the clamp nearest to the back of the LNB whereas I could have the clamp nearest to the feed horn end of the LNB. This would move the LNB away from the dish maybe an inch - could this be the problem? Presumably I've got to have the LNB at the "focal point" of the dish? I'll try playing with this tomorrow night... wakel [/QUOTE]
