[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1096952, member: 176704"] Took a look at my Superior DM and TD110, as set up by CH (it's too heavy, and too high up, for me to do that nowadays :() last year and tracks pretty well from 52E to 34.5W (and probably tracks further W than that, but haven't "gone there" recently). - The elevation on the bracket on the motor is set at around 39 degs, as estimated by the marking on the bracket scale that is "in line" with the centre of the fixing bolt - According to the TD110 spec, the nominal declination (or "offset angle") is 26 degs (as it is for the rest of that range of TD dishes), but mine is set to around 28-29 degs. That is based on where the scribed marking on the bracket that bolts to the motor arm aligns with the scale on the [I]bracket bolted to the dish face[/I]. [/QUOTE]
