Setting up a magic bracket on a 30" dish. I know this bracket doesn't skew. So how exactly do I set it up ?? Didn't say how to.
Should it be 110 on main dish arm them 119 and 129 off the side of that ?? As I see the the middle one if used for 119 is gonna be about sane height as another one as you can't really lower the other 2 arms on the bracket
Please help

119 should always be the center LNB on a 110, 119, 129 setup.
You setup (looking from the back of the dish) 110 on the right, 119 in the center and 129 on the left, 110 will be 9 degrees to the right, and 129 will be 10 degrees to the left.
This is because the signals criss-cross when they bounce off the dish.
Once you get them setup you skew the dish as specified for your location, (use dishpointer.com to find the elevation, direction and skew) tune peak and align the dish using TP 12516R on 119W, adjust the skew for best signals on 110 and 129.

If the dish can't be skewed then you will have to offset them in there mountings on the bracket, the 119 LNB will not change as it's the center LNB, the LNB for 129 will be higher then the 119 LNB, the LNB for 110 will be lower, how much depends on where your located.
