I'm desperately trying to set this up properly....resetting the motor to the reference point. Then no matter how carefully i move it in either direction, using a meter i cant locate thor, i can locate 8 degrees / nilesat, but the damn thing will not locate thor, its either 8 degrees or astra

once on 8 degrees i'm moving it really slowly about the pole but bugger all till astra kicks in

any explanations please
Make sure the motor was on zero to start with.
What you can do is send the dish to 8W, align on 8W, then send the dish to 0.8W using USALS and then tweek
