Got my pole up and ready to go for it tomorrow but just a couple of small things.
On my 80cm sat dish it has settings on both sides of the actual dish, 1 side says 80 the other side says 85, could this poss mean if you have an 80cm dish use this side and if you have an 85cm use this side.
This bit of the motor instrustions
Setting the Declination Angle on the Dish
According to your latitude of your location, find the delination angle
on table in page 7.
Set the Declination angle by the scale on the antenna dish, The reading on the dish scale should be--30 DELINATION ANGLE-should be set at 30 ?
My latitude is 55 making my Elevation Angle 35, declination angle 7.8, Dish Bracket Angle 22.4.. so do i set the dish angle to 22.4 on the side marked 80...80 on 1 side-85 on other on dish angle finder.
Its hard to explain but i wanna get it right before i put it up.
