:) This state of the art device allows me to watch Galaxy 25 with fair quality :D difference between 5-10Q vs. 35-45Q got as good as 60Q at times but other sats didn't like it (Hispasat) likes my dish more flat :rolleyes:

PS I think the dish is screwed.. this string actually bends my ever so slightly inward making it more "oval/deep" (not the best words to describe it.. but hey.) I think there is only other one solution to my little problem as east of G25 I pick up most satellites west of it not much really.. well i ordered better LNB will see then there is a chance I was thinking since my elevation on dish is so poor the dish may move on a little off arch there fore once it passes certain point i can't lock into any other sats.. :confused: Oh well will try to play some more

Now I try to find G10R.. not much success so far..

This sounds like the Culprit to me.......? The pole the dish mounts to, needs to be "Plumb" (Level)...! If it's not, it can result in what you describe!
 
Interesting. Looks to me like you are moving the lnb arm @ the end point so the lnb gets closer to the focal point of your dish. That would be much more noticeable in signal quality. The reflector itlself would be harder to budge compared to the lnb arm. Double check your focal point.
 
Make sure your dish isn't clam-shelled. I had a 90cm that was, and had the same problem you had. the solution is to tweak it back into shape by holding the dish like a steering wheel and thrusting it away from you...mine made a resounding POP and then it was flat as can be.

Take your dish down and lay it on a flat surface to check if it needs it or not...:cool:
