[QUOTE="ozumo, post: 1142644, member: 415308"] Move back to 1°W. Reducing declination is done by raising the dish like you would if you were increasing the elevation of a fixed dish. A little confusing I know. Once declination is reduced the dish will be pointing too high so you then have to reduce the elevation of the motor to compensate. With less declination the dish face will tilt down less as it moves away from due south and hopefully be closer to the ideal arc. If you still need to pull the top of the dish back to increase 28.2°E signals go back to 1°W and reduce declination and motor elevation again. Or the opposite if you need to push the dish forward. It's mostly trial and error. [/QUOTE]
