Sky LNB Shew

    My sky box and also non Sky box are missing a few channels. Think it’s an LNB skew issue. Am I correct that a Sky LNB should be “3” on its marking (Sky mini dish). Read sky mini dish/LNB doesn’t have the standard degree markings, just 1-5. Based in Dublin... otherwise it’s a call out for an installer which I don’t fancy paying 100€ for 🙈

    A bit more information would ideal, Is it a sky dish? If so the skew is preset and does not move. Can you access dish easily? And above all what channels are you missing? Did you do a signal test?

    Yeah, to the best of my knowledge, the '3' setting is correct for Dublin, though it's probably just borderline with where '2' comes into play, so might be worth trying the change.

    Cheers, I'll have a quick check, if not that then might be dish slightly misaligned.

    You say you are missing only a few, but that might be just ones you noticed. If you can do a full Free to Air scan, you should get 452 channels.
