[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 636816, member: 310216"] Rob, I popped up the stepladder this morning and between moving the dish I took a few photos looking out towards the LNB. It proved a couple of things, (a) always check the camera isn't set to macro before taking a shot and (b) you might have line of site above the trees, so don't go shooting your mouth off about the dish appearing to be blocked!!:(:-lol However, camera reset, I got a couple of images which show my West and East limits at the moment. They do show the lnb pointing at the trees and any further along the arc may be attainable when the leaves fall or I can 'trim' the top of the offending trees. Sorry if this isn't as useful as I thought it would be. I have a little further height on the pole and may try and raise the motor up to try and clear the eastern tree as I used to get 57°E before the summer. Pete [/QUOTE]
