[QUOTE="UNG, post: 496189, member: 8931"] A cheap satellite finder makes it a lot easier and helps you find the side lobes of the sat signal and makes sure you are getting the best signal I use [URL="https://www.dishpointer.com/"]Dishpointer[/URL] to pick the best location for the dish and avoid any fresnel incursion of the signal. This website and [URL="https://www.dishpointer.com/#app"]Dishpointer App[/URL] are very good for giving a very close initial alignment The satellite you are looking for is Astra 28.2°E 2E / 2F / 2G When you are checking for the exact azimuth and elevation you will get three peaks in the signal strength as you move the dish you obviously go for the middle one I normally check the azimuth and elevation 2 or 3 times before I do a final adjustment of the LNB skew and lock all the adjustment If you need a talk though it let me know and I will PM my number [/QUOTE]
