[QUOTE="mick2me, post: 134646, member: 195090"] The Menues are quite complex with little guidence in the handbook. I have now located and tuned THOR 1W This Satellite is due south of me. I tuned that for strongest signal. Somewhat weaker than ASTRA28e. This I did with the motor set at 0. then locked off the motor and dish. (We seem to be getting somewhere?) Then I manualy moved the motor till I picked up the signal for ASTRA28e. At strongest signal for ASTRA28e just using E-W movements the motor read '25 degrees?). I note that I can pick up and tune channels for HOTBIRD13E on the way? so I must now be tracking the arc? But why is Astra showing at 25 degrees. Regarding the motor I am still having the problem of having to press the EW manual buttons over and over again to move very slowlly west to east and v/v. [/QUOTE]
