- My Satellite Setup
- Technomate TM5402CI. TM2600 Motor, Sat Gear 80cm dish, coathanger and Araldite.
- My Location
- Middlesex
So, everything has arrived. New Technomate TM5200 D, new LNB with fixing attachment, dish etc. Got the co-ax cable and F plugs and made a patch cable for the satellite finder meter.
But i have a couple of questions. When connecting up the finder meter, i know the sat receiver box has to be on but do you have to select which satellite you're trying to align up from the sat menu on the box or does the box just help you find the satellite you're looking for and give power to the finder meter?
Also, i am only looking to direct the sat dish to one satellite, Eurobird 9. I'm not going to find other satellites 'clashing' with Eurobird 9 reception am I as i notice there are a couple of other 'birds' in close proximity to 9e.
Any help offered graciously accepted!!
