[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1034554, member: 176704"] [USER=268811]@aceb[/USER] I [I]think[/I] he said earlier that he can only set the longitude to 3 digits - thus 0.8W would have to be rounded up to 1.0W. [USER=411386]@Loquacious[/USER] If that is true, I think this is [I]another [/I]good reason to consider getting a much newer receiver as most of those will allow you to enter the longitude to 1 decimal place (thus Thor can be set as "0.8W") and sometimes even to 2 decimal places - certainly at least one of those that I have has the latter capability, and it can come in very handy when trying to nudge the dish "just a very little" E or W on a weak satellite.
