[QUOTE="ozumo, post: 1113860, member: 415308"] In London you should have no problem receiving both satellites on this dish. Just to confirm is this the same as your dish? [code]https://www.amazon.co.uk/Visiosat-Bisat-G2-Grey-Smc-Parabolic-Antennae/dp/B001CJZJ72[/code] Looking at it there is no central LNB, both are offset, and have adjustment for height to compensate for differences in elevation. It is possible there are multiple versions of the LNB holder so you may have an LNB in the centre, and one offset. A photo will help determine this. When looking at the front of the dish the LNB on the right will be 13E, left will be 19.2E. You can confirm by putting a cloth over an LNB and checking which signal is affected. Skew is the rotation of the LNB in its holder. When looking at the front of the dish the cable should roughly be exiting the LNB between (where an hour hand would be) 6 o'clock & half past six. If replacing or swapping the LNBs skew will need to be adjusted again. Is reception from 13E OK? If so it does sound like the 19.2E LNB could be the problem. I assume both LNBs have two outputs? Make sure any replacement has at least two. A (non-Sky) 40mm universal twin or quad LNB should fit, though you may need one with a smaller feedhorn (the bit that faces the dish) so it does not get in the way of the other LNB. [/QUOTE]
