hi ive been trying to get my system set up better than it is currently but after trying again for 5 hrs on sun i just cannot seem to get any of the sats to the west. i was getting thor 1w but now im not even getting that. i can find the eastern sats easily but for some reason the western ones are elluding me. i tried to set up on 5.0w which is atlantic bird i think but the best singnal quality i could manage was flickering between 20-40 i adjust for about 2 hours making minute adjustments but no matter what i did i just could not improve on that. i have tried a couple of the others nilesat eg. but i cannot get a satisfatory signal on any of them. i have a question that i was wondering as of all the stuuf ive read it never seems clear to me. if say for example im using 5.0w as the top of my arc should the motor be set at zero and the the mount and dish moved so that if found 5.0w would actually be at 0 on my motor or do i need to use the buttons to drive the motor to 5.0w and then move the mount and dish to find the signal so that the motor is at the 5.0w position when it is on the 5.0w sat and as i was trying to set up on 5.w with the motor in the 0 position would that make a difference to me not getting a good enough signal? what i mean is that if the motor is in the 5.0w pos the dish lnb etc is slightly scewed but if in the 0 position it is not does this matter?
i would be grateful for any help as this is driving me nuts now thanks!
