[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 111888, member: 175057"] You don't mention your due South satellite and this leads me to believe that you have missed the most vital step and that is to set the top of the arc (your zero position) to your due South. Your closest satellite would be 5W Atlantic bird 3 [url]http://www.lyngsat.com/ab3.html[/url] This is quite a good satellite to locate, as it has some analogue channels which can be readily found if you have an analogue receiver (or can borrow one). So you set your lattitude on the motor, then by swinging the motor on the pole mount and adjusting the elevation on the dish move the whole lot to try and pinpoint 5W. [/QUOTE]
