[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 1077614, member: 369937"] With that big of a dish it could be an alignment problem, as the hardware ages the dish can droop or even twist in the wind, what would be needed would be someone to watch the TV screen and you (or someone) to ever so slightly lift up on the dish an inch or so very slowly. See what this does for the "Q" signal, if it improves or gets back to a good lock then the dish may need a slight upward adjustment, this adjustment is on the dish mount, if it does nothing then try a small push left or right, (one way at a time) again watching the signal, if it improves then the motor needs a small left or right tweak, this can be done in the receiver setup for the motor, if this does nothing then you may need a pro to help out with this problem.
