[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 1161191, member: 187442"] Arm(s)? Setting up a DISEqC motor is probably the easiest, as you set everything to 0, motor, dish, and LNB. Then enter your Latitude, and Longitude, into your receiver, remembering negative Longitude readings = West, Positive Longitude = East. You then use your receiver to send your motor/dish to a suitable satellite, preferably one closest to your True South, your Longitude position, then physically adjust your dish. to get the strongest signal quality reading, you can get. You need to use the USALS motor option, in your receiver, so that your receiver can automatically locate the satellites, based on your correct Latitude, and Longitude. Then tighten everything up and check your readings on various satellites, by using your receiver to send the motor East, and West, noting your signal quality readings. You can then send the motor back to your start up satellite, and adjust the motor bracket, the dish bracket, slightly, to once again get the strongest signal quality reading, and try East/West again. You can use william-1's strongest transponder guide, to aid your search: [URL unfurl="true"]https://satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/strongest-transponders.173594/page-6#post-1139529[/URL] [/QUOTE]
