Just a quick feedback. As its a big dish, moving everytime you want to check other sats is gonna be really painfull exercise. <br />It might be better to install with actuator / positioner or Disecq actuator if box supports, so the sats can be accessed with a single remote button. It's a bit extra spending but worth to install it at the beginning rather than trying to get a suitible attchments later.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ 09.

mr_moxer, Phil will not be able to find the correct degrees for you from Qld...Its better to get them from the link that I post it for you, and also check the sat tracer in that link to get azimuth and elevation angles. When you catch the rat, its easy to play with it to get the best...

try using this freq as this is pretty stroung and will make it easier for u to find pas8 then u can fine tune ur lnb and dish for maximum performance the main thing now is to find it enter this freq 3740 H 27500 - 2/3 into ur reciever and start searching use the recicever and a television to find the sat cause the sat finder will give u signal were eva u point

Good -.Laser.-, hH needs to set up the box so he can find the signal with the sat finder and then fine tuning can be processed through the sat box signal/quality screen. Its very easy process but, user needs to know the basic things first...

And they will, we have (NOT ME) become a nation or dobbers and whingers, They make me sick! Do you know <br />that Australia and England rate the highest in the world in dobbing ranks compared to other countries.<br />Mind you some dumb arse'ole will complain about your dish because he or she said it effects their TV set or their dog barks at it when the dish moves, but you they don't worry about the barking dog that barks all day when you have to work shift work and sleep during the day.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 11.

mr_mixer<br />Please do me a favour,<br />If they complain about you, you must retaliate, you have to.<br />I bet I would find something to get them into big trouble, I hate people like that and you must LEGALLY get back at them, does she or he scream at the kids?, thats a hot potato these days.
