Angle of Beam

[ChapelCharlie]

What is the angle of the beam from the LNB pointing at the dish and the beam shooting into the sky. I know the Elevation is XX. What I want to know is the angle as shown. If that makes sense....?




Thanks

Charles

offset parabolic antenna.

Each manufacturer may use a little different angle.

But, close to 23 degree offset.

Thanks... trying to build a small Device to show my guys what the beam direction actually is. Been having the problem of mounting just under the eve of the roof and the signal is partially blocked. This way they can test the angle BEFORE mounting the dish to see if they have enough clearance.

Very simple got to point dish in rec, set to dish 300, select the sat you want, the look at elevation. No need to know offset of dish, just need elev. of sat.
