[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 652134, member: 323322"] 28E Birds have an element of pre-skew, uniquely. I think this was done in order to facilitate design of the Sky type LNBs, which have only a limited skew adjustment. So on a motorised dish it could be detrimental to adjust the LNB to optimise 28E as it throws out the skew on every other Satellite. Generally, it's best to leave it at zero skew (Top Dead Centre for your South Satellite) and accept the slightly imperfect results on 28E: After all, 28E is string enough to cope! But this is a hobby and the theory is just there to be ignored :D [/QUOTE]
