    G25 setup using DTV 36in Elliptical dish.

    36" Diretv elliptical dish for FTA

    Thanks Iceberg & Techno. I didn't skew the LNB, when I checked the azimuth for my area (nor cal) it was about 39 degrees but didn't find any skew information. Does it need skew?

    36" Diretv elliptical dish for FTA

    I recently purchased a directv international dish 36" elliptical with both KU and C LNB. I have been trying to catch G25 97.0W but have been unsuccessful so far.
