Carrier Skew
The Carrier Skew is any known Skew on the target satellite. The Carrier Skew used to adjust the
difference between the carrier polarity and physical polarity on the mount. The allowed Skew ranged is
from -90 to +90. Most satellites have this value set to zero (0) unless the configured satellite has a
known Skew angle which the user may enter or in some cases have built-in Skew for example Eutelsat.
Ka systems are circular band and thus do not utilize this feature.
