Hello: Newbie here.

Please help me with tilt. I am finding only confusion.
One site computes my tilt angle as 9.2 and no + or -. The scale on my 18 X 20 DTV Multiswitch triple LNB dish has a scale of 40 to 100 on the tilt axis!! No plus or minus!! That makes no sense to me!!

VERY IMPORTANT!!!! ... is the tilt/skew/roll axis set while facing the FRONT of the reflector????? ...or ... is the tilt/skew/roll axis set while facing the BACK of the refelctor?????

Is the tilt/skew/roll axis set in DEGREES??? If so, degrees from what?????

Please slap me up the said of my head and make me understand, lol

If one of you would be so kind as to compute my info for DTV 4S/8 at 101, I can probably figure out whats happenin'. My location is LAT 34.835 /LON94.618

Thanks a million,
