[QUOTE="Anbeyon, post: 118192, member: 193847"] Dear all, I have just installed a motorised dish and echostar pvr 5020 receiver. I have it working now but I'm not sure I'm seeing all of the Satellites I should. I'm not sure but think we have some tweaking to do. The site where we are can actually see very little of the West but does have a good view to the East. Although once we get around to our most Eastern point we may well have some problems with trees. Anyway I am wondering if we need to tweak the Arc made by the dish when moving in some way as we don't seem to receive signals from as many satellites as I thought we might. We have managed to tune into the following; Turksat 1C Eurobird 3 Astra 2 Arabsat 2-3A Astra 3A Astra 1 Hotbird Eutelsat W3A Atlantic bird 3 Atlantic Bird 2. Looking through the issue of What Satellite I have I think I should be receiving more eastern birds than I am. What do you think ? Do I need to adjust the Arc traversed by the dish, If so do you have any hint/tips on how I might do that ? Thanks again for all of your help. Regards, Clive [/QUOTE]
