[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 527452, member: 175057"] This is the LNB FSKUVN, which Maplins sell with their Passion HD package. The customer had tried to set up the dish himself,but had problems, so I dropped in to do the final alignment. With the LNB in the usual Skew position for Astra 28.2E, I was getting abysmal quality readings and a very flat spectrum, so I moved it further around until the spectrum improved, but found I was on the opposite polarity. Well the picture attached is where I had to put it for perfect skew, have included a red line to show where I would have expected it to be. :) [B][COLOR="Red"] Edited for additional information[/COLOR][/B]. Also similar applies to the [URL="http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/813420-post42.html"][B]Icecrypt 0.1db single LNB[/B][/URL]. There is a feint scale on the top of the LNB, but many people will assume that the cable connector should be vertical at the bottom. [/QUOTE]
