[QUOTE="Snowy, post: 39482, member: 175428"] Hello all, I've just recently installed a Force Frontier 90cm toroidal, and what a job setting up. OK for just a few sats, but I'm trying to view 5E, 13E, 19E and 28E. Up to now I've got them all great but exept 28E, (nothing at all). It would seem this is to do with the drop in elevation. I have a feeling that the secondary dish is getting in the way when elevated up to the 5E spot, (4 deg higher than 28E). Tried skewing and got 28 but lost the others. Note, I did this with 5E in the middle, (to get the best signal, as Sirius drops out frequently). Would I be better off spreading the sats across the dish, say with nothing in the middle, and bring 28E further into the dish? sgar, how did yo umanage it? mherman443, the documentation with this kit is crap, but if you search the internet there are a couple of sites that provide more help; sorry, can't remember them :( Anyway, some advice here would save me a lot of bother at weekends! Thanks. [/QUOTE]
