Hi All,

Just looked a my LNB on a 80cm clear plastic dish, on
line of site it looks like the LNB Arm has the LNB
pointing at the dish at arrownd 20 digrees below
the center of the dish. (No damage to LNB Arm).

Should the LNB point to the center of the Dish.

Thanks

hard to tell, check brand and model and see if you can find installation instructions to figure out if your dish is mounted correctly?
it is not always a clear cut case:

Hi Giga.

Your LNB setup looks tha same as my LNB,
The sat signal must hit the center of the dish
at an angle, then picked up by the LNB that
points below the canter of the dish to pickup
the bounced Sat Signal.

This should explain it for you.
