Figure 2-3 Satellite signals
Signals transmitted in vertical(red) and horizontal(blue) wave offset exactly 90º from each
other. Since linear satellite signals are oriented in a precise cross pattern, Free Way 1S
antenna’s receiving element, called an LNB (low-noise block) must be oriented in the same
way to optimize reception. This orientation adjustment is referred to as the LNB’s “skew
angle.” Figure 1-4 illustrates how skew determines the amount of signal the LNB collects.
The more signal, the better reception.
