[QUOTE="R.T.B., post: 94961, member: 189189"] I think I finally cracked it.I can now get from Eurobird all the way across the arc to Hispasat.My main difficulty was understanding the due South position. I was able to program Atlantic Bird 2 in the receiver and used it as suggested for the highest point on the arc.I then found that the scale on my motor was reading 3* E so I added around 10* to all the satellite locations E and subtracted 10* from all the satellites located west and with a bit of tweeking every thing worked out ok. I am a pensioner and all the trips up a 20' ladder didnt do the joints much good but all the same I am chuffed that I got it to work. Hope all this makes sense. I still have a bit of a problem storing additional satellites,I can input the information but when I select the satellite the motor will not hunt. Many thanks to all the experts. [/QUOTE]
