I'm picking up Sky at the moment and I would like to moving my dish to pick up hotbird 13e.
How do I do this ? Is there special equipment involved?

Remember that the instant you move the dish, your Sky reception goes out the window. Permanently if you cant get the dish aligned accurately again! 
If you want a go, tune the receiver into a known 13e Tp. Move the dish southwards and raise the lnb slightly until you get a signal. It might take a few goes..
Mark the dish before you start just in case you get hopelessly lost.
You maight be better off getting a cheapish second dish to play with to be honest.

a good trick is to put your eye behind the arm which holds the LNB and look down it as it was a barrel of a gun and you are taking aim ... you should be able to line up with a tree, an neighbours aerial, etc ... this is your point of reference when you want to get Sky back again ... write down the elevation angle too.
