The spacing you're refereing to is that the feed horns on the lnb? Are the arms the same?

Sorry Boba I ment reflector. So it sound like everything is the same except the LNB and of course the adjustments. I have a 1000.4 EA now but am thinking converting it to WA to get a better signal. Not sure of the differences to a 1000.2?

Just like the title says. I would think no because the refrator may be different but I'm no expert. Thoughts.

I answered warren but look like it didn't post. I ment 72. Alergies have been giving me a hasty head ack for a few days now.

I jsut moved my eastern arc dish and can't get a signal that dish wants. got it aimed at 71 but nothing. Weather isn't that bad.

Thanks harshness for the info. I joined this forum to learn and I heard this was the best place to do that. Moving my dish is not a business for me but a necessity. So I'm using this need like a hobby trying to have fun doing it. I did all the things you mentioned but we have had a lot of...

This may sound like a stupid question to most of you guys but I'm new at this. When the satalite finder says skew of -18.1 and the skew in the instruction is 85 degerees what does that mean?

I'm getting 61.5 on port 1 but 71 doesn't show up. I followed the instruction and it was saying connect the cable to LNB to port 2 and peak out 71.5 than reconnect to port 1. But still it's not finding anything but 61.5.

I was going by the D1000.4 EA and WA installation instuctions from Ecostar which lists the angles by zip code. My zip is 20688 and it shows 206XX 45 184 85 for the eastern arc table??? Am I using the wrong lists?

I'm an RVer and have a eastern arc dish. I had to move it recently and now can only get 61.5 into my 612VIP receiver. I checked the angles and there spot on with a signal strength of around 55-60. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Tim

Yes it does have the rod for the elevation adjustment.

I bought what I thought was an eastern arc 1000.4 dish from ebay but went to hook it up and the LNBF doesn't look like and eastern arc. Complained to the seller and he thinks it's a 1000.2 LNBF. If he were to give me a new LNBF would the arm and refractor be the same??? So far not trusting...
