The following definitions apply to the tables and specified angles below: To determine the direction of rotation,
the viewer must look at the front face of the antenna as does the LNB, i.e. the viewer must be standing in front
of the antenna. The long lines indicate increments of 10°.
• A rotation in CLOCKWISE DIRECTION is positive (+). l A rotation in COUNTERCLOCKWISE DIRECTION is neg-
ative (-).
• A rotation in "+" direction means that the BOTTOM of the LNB is turned to the LEFT.
• A rotation in "–" direction means that the BOTTOM of the LNB is turned to the RIGHT.

Note: The SKEW angles provided are for reference only. Adjustments of less than 8° are usually not necessary as
long as reception is undisturbed. The fine-tuning of the SKEW angle often allows the reception of satellites in
areas actually outside of their footprint. The footprints of the individual satellites can be found at www.lyngsat.
com or www.satcodx.com. Both websites provide interesting general information about the channels and foot-
prints of the various satellites.
