On the tm5302 you add the coordinates to the name of the sat

E.g.

7.0w nilesat or it could be 07.00w nilesat.

For the usals to work.

Thanks @Lazarus

@rob12770 I can't help you anymore with usals, as I use the remote on my vbox, to drive the dish.

I don't use anything that is usals.

Or you could use on if @william-1 lists.

And then change the longitude and latitude for your location.

your right enough Chris, i did put the 3.0W in before and that IS as you say, how you set the coordinates, the reason it didn't work as the gardener had lent on my dish i just installed at the front and moved it off.. he has been dealt with in no uncertain terms ..seems to be all ok now thanks..

ps i got a SatLink WS-6908 meter.. which made my life a LOT easier :)
cheers rob

pps meant 3 west In my OP it was a typo.
( i know there's seldom anything there but there was a feed earlier )

Click to expand...

Using a meter at the dish does make life less stressful. Got fed up with needing a mate inside, and using our phones to talk to each other.

3.0°W is a good freesat to keep scanning. Loads of Stuff pops up. Then it goes quite for a while.

Happy scanning :-)
