Thats a problem.<br />You need to find each Satellite manually first, My C band 4.3M dish does Intelsat 701,to Asiasat 2 thats around 10 Satellites in Between, find them and save there position.<br />Phil

The correct arc is very important, I started at Pas 8 at 166 deg east and went either way to adjust the correct Arc.<br />Phil

If your motor supports USALS then there is an easier way.<br /><br />get a GPS or ask someone close to you what your coordinates are and stick The values in your <strong>satellite set top box</strong>. If you cannot find a GPS and you live in Melbourne then 37.67S - 144.84E should do.<br /><br />Set up your elevation on the dish to 46.3° and the azimuth to true north. That’s about 11,424° East of magnetic north (compass).<br /><br />The box <strong>with USALS</strong> will automatically find each satellite for you. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> <br /><br />If the dish moves the wrong way than where you expect it to go to your coordinate settings and change your location from S to N. <strong>This is how you fool the motor into thinking you live in the Northern hemisphere.</strong> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ 24.

That toy I have. Helps me find places while I fly <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ 24.
