For the following tables and angle specifications, the following applies as a definition: To determine the direction
of rotation, the viewer, like the antenna, looks towards the satellite, i.e. he stands behind or next to the antenna.
The complete antenna must be rotated.
• Rotation directions IN THE CLOCK SENSES are negative (-).
• Rotation directions AGAINST the clockwise direction are positive (+).
• When rotating in the „-“ direction, the antenna is moved DOWN to the LEFT.
• When rotating in the „+“ direction, the antenna is moved DOWN to the RIGHT.

LNB set-up in different areas:
Note: This table only contains guideline values for the Skew angle. Corrections below approximately 8° do
not necessarily need to be carried out as long as good reception is ensured. "Fine-tuning" the SKEW angle
often makes it possible to receive satellites in areas that are actually already well outside the coverage area.
You can read about the actual coverage areas of the individual satellites at www.lyngsat.com or www.satcodx.
com. These two websites provide general, interesting information about the range of channels and the reach of
satellite television.
