[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 1084569, member: 187442"] When you set up a motorized dish, using USALS, you need to get a few basics correct. 1 Ensure your pole is secure, and plumb. 2. Set everything to 0, dish LNB and motor. 3. Enter your Latitude, and Longitude, into your receiver and send it to a suitable satellite, preferably one nearest to your Longitude position, the use your receiver to send the motor/dish to the chosen satellite.. 4. physically move the dish, to the chosen satellite, and get the strongest signal possible. This way 0, on your motor, should point to your Longitude, in your case 6.69 West. You then send your dish to the furthest East satellite, and furthest West satellite, available to you, and check the readings. You can then send it back to the satellite you set up on, and make fine adjustments, to the motor, and dish bracket, to get the dish to track the satellite arc correctly. You can select the satellites manually, then drive the motor/dish, to the chosen satellite, and store them, by using Diseqc 1.2, instead of USALS, on your receiver. Once set up it will act the same as USALS. [/QUOTE]
