[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 740959, member: 175144"] Ah, no. Huevos is right, the Eastern direction once the motor is driving over the polarmount will be far less accurate (less pulses per degree of movement). Think of the mount-motor-dish shape as an equilateral triangle on the west side, and a increasingly narrowing isoceles triangle on the east. It might be worth looking at the decreasing numbers you get between 1West and say Rascom at 2.8 degrees (if you can get it) _http://www.rascomstar.com/fleet.php Arabsat 5 should be - just - within reach as well on a 1.8m _http://www.lyngsat.com/arab5a.html [/QUOTE]
