[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 854323, member: 323322"] Watching the neighbours' dishes to get the Azimuth near is not of value: Major Satellite positions are 3 degrees or less apart and your perspective alone is likely to result in the wrong position being attained. However, if the mark-up showing line of sight to 28E is correct, you won't succeed anyway as it appears to be occluded. How did you establish those mark-ups: Dishpointer? ie How do they correctly account for Elevation? As for the Beeper, they come with a poor quality cable stub which will either fail to connect properly to the LNB owing to the flimsy inner core, or the core will break or it can easily become trapped and short across to the sheath. I suggest you make up a short patch cable for yourself. Once you've done that, you may need to reboot your Box in case the short-circuit protection on the 13/18v LNB supply has operated. [/QUOTE]
