[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 698878, member: 310216"] Yes, you have successfully aligned the dish to your due south sat. :-party1 Now, apart from taking a break for lunch or going down the pub to celebrate, you may want to try and scan for more satellites. I'd suggest Astra2 at 28.2°E and maybe Hispasat at 30°W. If you get channels from both satellites it would suggest you are tracking the arc ok. You can of course then finely adjust the dish to maximize the signals all along the arc. Oh, and please check that pole, if it isn't plumb you will be even more frustrated by the poor results you may get. Edit : Seems great minds think something alike! [/QUOTE]
