- My Satellite Setup
- Have an SL65 at the moment, TM H-H motor(not sure of number), Lidl's 80cm dish and a Darkgold 0.1dB LNB. Got $LY +HD installed, but not sure I can continue to justify the big outlay.

Hi, I just joined your forum. So, please bear with me.
I have (at the moment) an SL65 (with the Japanese IQ firmware) and 90CM dish with a H-H motor.
I have been having trouble getting my H-H motor pointing in the right direction. And it just came to me in a flash!
Wouldn't it be good if the first channel on all the satellites were named after the satellite?
That would make "setting up" such an easy task.
The problem I'm having is: There are so many up there that I can never tell which one I'm pointing at. The listings on Lyng sat don't relate to what I'm seeing. Then Just when I thought I had it (19.2E) I tried to get 13E and my sl65 didn't get any channels(I'm using USALS). I do have a compass but my dish is mounted above the back door which is a metal framed U-PVC one and puts the compass off.
Then when I got what I thought was 19.2 & 13 East, together. I tried to move it to get 25.5E and It wouldn't find it.
I think my elevation is set correctly. But could be wrong on this. I can get something at 4.8E.But I don't know if the channels I'm getting are on sirius or not. And some of them aren't listed on Lyng sat.
Any help would be very appreciated.
