    Default Lyngsat problem

    I live just south of brisbane and I have 2.3 meter mesh dish C band and will fit a Ku lnb on top of the C band on top by cutting the top off and mounting it on top. I have seen some for sale and watched this being done on u tube. Where do I find the skew for Ku on Intelsat 19 at 166.0E?

    Ultimately the skew can only be optimized using a satellite meter. The skew angle from your location can be found on .. simply input your street address, select the satellite and click on search.

    If your Ku LNB has the connector facing downward, it will be approx between the 5 and 6 o'clock position, but as mentioned, as with any LNB, skew can only be correctly aligned/optimised with a meter with a signal quality (BER/MER) scale.
