Hi,
I have a question that pertains to setting up my Toroidal Satellite antenna, the setup positions I received indicate Elevation 45 deg, Skew 104 deg, & Azimuth (Compass Scale) 149 deg (Magnetic North) but the problems lies with the apartment building next to me. I cannot seem to get a good enough signal; the best I can manage is between 59-67 (fluctuating). I was wondering if I adjust the height would that resolve the issue?
The height is around 12-15 ft and the distance from the antenna to the apartment is around 10-12. I have had a DirecTV satellite installed at a lower position and it worked just fine but I’m wondering if this hug dish needs more clearance or an adjustment to the elevation.
Thx
