Mounting 2nd lnb for 103.0W ?

[primestar31]

Here's your explanation:

DVB S2 8PSK FEC 5/6

S2 8PSK with a FEC of 5/6? It's lucky we can get it at all on a small dish. Those specs need much higher quality level (IE: bigger dish) to keep the signal locked properly.

Lot of good brainstorming in this thread.
Really enjoyed it. :up

But now please turn your attention to the thread marked: SES 3
The bird will be replaced, and the skew/tilt/problem, will be no more.

And, to sum it up, quoting from respectable sources like TRWAM or Padre Pio, we can say "AMEN" to that

Step #1: Break into shed, retrieve ladder
#2: Dig out dish
#3: Attempt to get 103w.

When facing the dish, is it 26 degrees clockwise, or counter clockwise?

Cheers, K

Approximately 26 degrees clockwise, when facing the dish.

No avail.. turned the lnb clockwise to 25'ish degrees without success (regular channels still came in). I couldnt actually get on the roof of the shed due to ice so I moved the dish to 127w where I was able to access the LNB from atop the ladder. Doing this in the winter is a bit dangerous so am going to wait until the spring and re-install the dish at a more accessible place (4 foot pole off the ground). It might be a long winter since patience is not one of myh virtues.

Cheers, K

Set the 2nd LNBF as it were for 83w. Confirm clockwise rotation when standing in front of the dish looking at the back of the LNBFs.
