Hello
I have just completed my installation of 110cm motorized dish but I'm a little confused as to the correct angles I should set the motor/dish to.
Info.
My Latitude is 51.45
Set motor to elevation angle of 39 (as instructed by motor manual based on my lat)
Declination Angle 7.4 - Not sure what this relates to?
Dish Bracket Angle - Set to 27.6 (as instructed by motor manual based on my lat)
From the guides I’ve read and advice I’ve received the dish should be vertical but as you can see from the picture below, using the above angels leaves the dish slightly tilted backwards. Does this look correct?
I believe my closest sat to be Thor 1W but do I move the whole motor around on the pole or do I use the motor manual controls to just move the dish?
Thanks.
