[QUOTE="sonnetpete, post: 653602, member: 310216"] Hi Heuvos, I'm confused too!! However, have you any idea why we input our latitude into USALS? It can't obviously affect where a H H motor stub points vertically as that is fixed physically. But if you were on the Equator you would be able to access more satellites (given that you had line of sight to all of them) as they would be directly overhead. So as you are a bit further south than me, does that lower latitude 'tell' the software that you can access more of the arc and possibly let you go to 68°E? It begs the question if I alter my latitude settings will I get the further ends of the arc? I did alter my physical limits when I changed the dish but can't remember what I set them at. I think it was about 80° E and W. I'll see about driving the dish on 1.2 and let you know. Pete [/QUOTE]
