[QUOTE="Manikm909, post: 1128217, member: 415764"] thanks [USER=178786]@moonbase[/USER] its not that complicated - the issue is far more simple than that .... i will try and describe better.... real example: i move dish to 30w (from any East point) - i get 18.2db on Afro Music [I](up to this point everything locks correctly at full signal for all the sats going back east to 54e - no nudging needed....)[/I] however, lets say i'm on Afro Music on 30w, and then drive dish out to 45w for china radio, after i come back to 30w - the signal will be lower, maybe something like 6db (not 18.2 or even close - this is recovered by nudging and storing again) subsequently if then try 7W or 1W it might show low or no signal, until i MANUALLY nudge dish with motor remote to optimise the signal. (these all worked fine previously going up to 30w and back to east sats etc) i just cannot work out why this happens. i could understand it if the positions didnt lock again to optimum levels when nudging, possibly caused by when moving the dish that far, it makes the pole lean \ bend, BUT if this was the case, I wouldnt be able to get everything back again. its putting me off going out WEST - to play with CBAND at the moment [/QUOTE]
