Ranksat Jambo. Ndio niko kwa hii nyumba nisaidiwe. I thought Lnb skew matters with the geographical location. I usually twist the thing until i hit green then maximise the signal by twerking. Sasa ndugu saidia skew iangalie wapi na hapo ndio napata 3780,4151 ila tu 3880,3720. Barikiwa.

Sijambo kaka. Open www.dishpointer.com, key in your location and search, select your satellite of interest, then see the displayed parameters at the bottom (azimuth, skey, elevation, etc) for your selected location and sat of interest. All the best.

Kila siku nikiwaambia watu waangalie ile LNB skew sahihi kwa dishpointer.com wanadhani naota. That skew is very wrong my friend.

By the way even if you set the skew at 90deg you will rarely miss a sat, then correct it after locking.
