If your Dish500 skew is 90 it isn't important at all. Otherwise you do need to skew the dish. Without skew you will be pointing high for one satellite and low for the other. You will most likely be able to get only one satellite without skew.

This is the angle by which the dish must be "tilted Up or Down" in relation to the theoretical horizon, in order to position it precisely for the desired satellite. Skew: When you set the skew of your LNB you are lining up your dish exactly to the same horizontal/vertical position as the satellite in the sky.

The Point Dish tool is available under the "Tools" menu in .zip format but for your convenience you may also download it here. Note: Add two degrees to the elevation value obtained to compensate for inaccuracies in the antenna manufacturing/assembly.

Install your LNBF on your dish and tilt the LNBF to compensate for polarization skew for the satellite your dish is pointing at, and for your location. Mount your dish on its mast. Make sure mast is 100% vertical and solid.

What to do: While in program mode and with the satellite selected, press SKEW twice to reverse the format or return to step 6 and use a different name. If you press SKEW then ... 1. Press SAT then the letter and then the number and it will move to the satellite. SKEW, MODE, B/W and FINE are used as satellite names also.

For satellite reception, the 'skew' angle of the LNB is also important. The 'skew' angle represents the horizontal/vertical plane of the LNB. When a satellite dish is facing towards a satellite at due South, the plane of the LNB will be vertical (straight down).

S and Q. The S meter is the connection strength to the LNB. The Q meter is the Quality or the actually dish pointing strength to the satellite. You can use these for aiming your dish. Your Skew, Azimuth and Elevation numbers work best when your mast pole is dead level, side to side, and front to back.
