Hi everyone, very impressed with this forum.
I've just bought a Technomate 5500daci, triax 88cm dish and finally this weekend a Technomate hh100.
I've had a go this weekend with some success, managed hotbird, astra1 and astra 2 but it's not tracking as it should, probably because I started at hotbird instead of something nearer to me at 1 degree west.
I've learnt a lot and now want to have another go to hopefully get it right.
A couple of things I'm not sure about :-
1. Rotor elevation - the manual says this is latitude, is this correct ?
2. Dish elevation - the manual says elevation from manufacturer - (60 - latitude), I can't find the manufacturer elevation ?
Hope you can help.
