[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 883510, member: 187442"] The LNB skew is just where the LNB is rotated. Forget about this. When the motor is at zero the LNB should be straight down, not skewed, rotated, at all, as zero should point to your True South, which is basically your Longitude. You will not find 0.8W if you have moved your dish manually to 28.2E, as your elevation will be out. Please ensure your motor is at zero, enter your co-ordinates into your receiver, latitude, and longitude, using the DISEqC 1.3 option, then move it to the satellite you want to use for alignment. You can use any but probably best to use a strong transponder near to your true south position. To assist you finding 0.8W use dishpointer.com. Type in your Postcode, then from the drop down satellite box select 0.8W. You now zoom in on the map, to your house, and move the green icon to where you have your dish sited. Look at the green line to where approximately your dish should be pointing. [/QUOTE]
