Note: The skew angle values provided are for reference only!
Adjustments of less than 8° are usually not required as long as reception is undis-
turbed. The fi ne-tuning of the skew angle often allows the reception of satellites in
areas actually outside of their footprint. The footprints of the individual satellites
can be found at www.lyngsat.com or www.satcodx.com. Both websites provide
interesting general information about the channels and footprints of the various
satellites.
