SIgnal means nothing. Quality is what you need. How do you know you are pointing to a Sat? What is your setup?

I got a 10 feet dish, Pansat 3500s and a VBox (from DSM) to move my dish. All works great, but as I start saving sats and moving the dish true the receiver (using the VBox) there is a time when the VBox will loose exact position it should go to for satellites. Then I have to manually move it...

Thanks for your help.

Lancelot, hi, thanks for responding. I am very new on this and I got the dish free. SO I changed something like the Feedhorn and LNBs got the Chapparral Coroto II c/ku. I also noticed the arm was bad and bought a new one. But I bought the 24 and the old one was an 18. Do you think that is...

Livik, what do you think will happen is the arrow is not pointing down? Will it not work, will I not get any signal? WHat would happened?

ok, thanks, I will go up and remove the feedhorn and use a pen to create the arrow looking at the picture I got from the flyer and when I get it install again, I will make that arrow point to the ground at 90 degrees (that is what the flyer says, paoint arrow to Polar Axis). Likvid, THANKS a...

I am looking at the flyer picture. It says the arrow should be pointing to the polar axis. Does that means the arrow has to point to the ground?? Like pararell to my pole?

But I do not have the pointing arrow. I do not know where it is, maybe I dropped it by mistake. now what do I do, I do not have a pointing arrow???? What can I do now???
