Setup for 6 degrees west

[neilli.p]

Hi
I'm currently just moving between hotbird and 28.2 on my motorised
system.I now want to fine tune so I hit all sats on the belt.
for my location 53N 6W (to hit due south)do I set the motor to 0 degrees and then try to receive signal from satellite @ 5W??

Thanks in advance.

Yep - 5W is going to be your reference satellite.

Have a look here http://www.lyngsat.com/ab3.html

and choose a transponder
