We have a tv set at the dish(to watch if the signal get better) The dish ANC3(k3@87 deg)tp 600 signal100 quality99. I can not used this one(max out) ( we go c-band side w3 @87 deg. This where signal drop down to 70.This with elevation at 41.5. Now we adjust the declination to 6.5 foward tilt. We turn elevation rod to 48.5 and they pop in. On the 2 stud bolts(about 6'' long almost used it up) All this on my southmost-highest sat. Now we started to go west to T4@ 89 deg(come in reallity good. We keep checking the satellites until we get to E2@111 deg. We get sparkler. M 5 dont come in, G O @123 deg lot of sparkler. W 7 come in good. Now on the East end AMC2 come really good.AMC 5 not good at all. Everthing from there is bad. I would get some out (sat-servicman) to align it if I could find good one.We tried the push up and pull down(checking the elevation) I call the maker of the dish DH Satellite and ask about the feed horn placment. He said 35 5/8 from the dish to the feed face. So I change to 36 it made it clear. It a 10ft dish. I dont know the dept. I will get next time. Thank you jackp n Chicago Now It afternoon I was checking the sat on the east end.Nss 806@40.5 deg Tp 31 came in so my fta receiver some program. That the only one I could get. I got trees all around me.But it dont block the sat I need for alignment.It seem to me that Iam good at W7,C4,That west end and east end Nss806 come in.But i am missing m5,p9,b6 w6 and few more. I am confused</p></blockquote><p></p>
