UK Satellite Antenna Horizontal Adjustment: Astra to Hotbird 13E Transition Guide

Hello
I live in the UK and want to move the antenna from Astra to Hotbird.
The problem is that I can only move the antenna horizontally. Is it possible to switch to Hotbird by moving only left-right sideways? if so, how?
Regards, Sylvec

Standing behind the antenna, move it to the right.

I've already moved it, but I only have the quality on 2 or 3 transonders, and I can't find Polish programs on any of them, and I have bought the package. Where to look for the cause?

Either the dish still needs a vertical correction + LNB turn, or it's not Hot Bird, but a satellite between Astra and HB -> Eutelsat 16A (16.0°E)

I have not come across antennas without elevation adjustment. And since you live in the UK, you almost certainly have an Astra2A (28.2° E), so 10 degrees east of the "normal" Astra, so (almost) for sure

And even assuming that it's Astra1, you have to raise the antenna a bit and turn the converter slightly counterclockwise looking from the front of the antenna. Without these treatments, it will not be optimally tuned.
Edit: With Astra 2, living in Poland, the elevation change is smaller than with Astra1
because switching from 28 to 13 we pass the south (in Krakow, Astra1 is the highest). So changing the elevation is like changing positions by only 4°. In the UK you have both satellites in the east, so you have Hotbird above both Astras. Thor is the highest there (1W). Therefore, the change in elevation and skew is greater because we move not 6 but 15°.
