[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 984107, member: 187442"] You are having far more problems, than you should have, it shouldn't be this complicated, providing you have followed the basics, unless your motor is faulty, or the receiver, or there is a compatibility issue. Seeing as your Longitude, your True South, is very close to 4.8E, try ignoring USALS, and switch to Diseqc 1.2. With Diseqc 1.2 you move the motor/dish, using the East/West options, and store each satellite, e.g. 4.9E as 1, 7E as 2, 9E as 3, 10E as 4, etc..... Start with 4.9E, select a strong, active, transponder, for your region, set your dish/motor/LNB at 0, then physically move the dish, and adjust the bracket, until you get the strongest signal, from 4.9E. You then tighten everyhting up, go to your receiver, enter a strong transponder for the next Easterly satellite, and use the Diseqc 1.2 options to move the dish, to that satellite, peak the signal, and store it, before moving to the next. You can find a list of satellites, and transponders, on various sites, including Lyngsat: [CODE]http://www.lyngsat.com/europe.html[/CODE] Below is an image explaining how the dish might not be aligned correctly, and missing the satellite arc, for various reasons: [ATTACH]97167[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
