Elliptical Satellite Dish?
How can I get the signal for 110 and 119 with and Elliptical Satellite Dish?
Satellites are in a geostationary orbit. The 110 satellite is lower on the horizon because it is east of the 119 satellite. The skew adjustment rotates the reflector to accommodate the difference in elevation between the satellites.
A good rule of thumb is to have 4 degrees of clearance on either side of the satellites you are trying to aquire a signal from.
To improve signal strengh and line of sight lost by the trees, buildings, etc, it may be necessary to move the dish further back from its current location.
This will give you more clearance from obstructions, and give you more room to adjust your elevation.
Try presetting your skew and your elevation before you adjust your azimuth. Then fine tune your elevation. Skew adjustments are last and usually not necessary.
