Which skew angle?

[timbear3]

Today I received a motor for my 39” dish, went to DishPointer.com and got the angles of four satellites that I want to watch. Everything was ok until I found that the skew setting was different for each satellite (20.0 deg to the right, 23 deg to the left etc. etc.) I know that the signal varies according to the skew angle for each satellite. I am sure this problem has been solving by others. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

the motor will automatically turn the dish for the skew. The skew on the LNB is 0 for a motorized because you set up the motor for your true south satellite (same sat as your longitude)
