[QUOTE="georgia_grrl, post: 76742, member: 184680"] Hi, i got my motor today and, typical me, have been reading the instructions. they state that the satellite you use for your "south" satellite when setting it up should be no more than 5 degrees east or west of the actual south from your location. i'm hoping one of you will help me, my location is 3.98 degrees west, so which satellite should i be using? i know i could use 0.8W or 1W, but i'm hoping for a satellite with a pretty strong transponder and some FTA channels to make the alignent easier (i'm doing this install without a sat meter) my exact location is [b]Lat[/b] (WGS84) N55:56:50 ( 55.947301 ) [b]Long[/b] (WGS84) W3:58:49 ( -3.980251 ) if that helps anyone, and i'm using an 80cm mesh dish with a sharp 0.6LNB connected to a technomate 2000D receiver. thanks [/QUOTE]
