[QUOTE="dfrois, post: 197089, member: 206515"] Hi, It may be that your arc is wrong, as some members have pointed out. What sats do you get? Are those in the right azimuths for you location? I don`t know your receiver, but most have a sattelite location help tool that state the azimuth and elevation for a given sat, after you enter your longitude and latitude. You can cross-check those results with the actual azimuths you are getting for those satellites. That will tell if you aimed at true south or not. You say you used 1W as South reference, but that will only work if your longitude is close to 0 or 1 degrees. If its anything else, then your South is wrong. Also, if the sats that you do pick up are closer, on either side, of the center of the arc, it may be a wrong angle at the engine mount. Another obvious thing to look at is any physical obstruction in the direction of that particular satellite. You have probably tried some of these already, but it doesn`t hurt remembering. Good luck.
