[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 1158693, member: 187442"] You don't hack a Linux based receiver, you just load a compatible image on it, and then play around with it to load various software, that you want to use. USALS is easy to setup, you simply find out your Latitude, and Longitude, positive Longitude readings = East, negative = West. You input these into your receiver, then send your dish/motor, which should be setup at 0, via your receiver, to a suitable satellite to align to, usually one close to your Longitude. Providing the pole is secure, and plumb, the dish should find the available satellites, as the receiver should calculate where they are located, by using your Altitude, and Longitude, as a starting position. You then fine tune the dish/motor, by sending it back to the satellite you aligned on, then adjusting the dish/motor brackets, to get your motor/dish to track the satellite arc correctly. [/QUOTE]
