[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 509711, member: 175057"] You can of course do that when using USALS, but if you align your dish on a non-central arc satellite, there is much more chance of the opposite side of the arc being out, which is why it is advisable to align on your nearest due South satellite. After aligning on a central satellite, you can of course then go to a difficult off centre satellite and check your alignment, perhaps even tweak slightly, but you may then find that it throws out something on the opposite side of the arc. So if you get things perfect at the top of the arc, but your outside sats are not quite right, then you try raising or lowering the inclination on the motor to rectify the problem, doing this and resetting the dish declination on any sat other than your central one is a bit hit and miss.
