[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 706203, member: 323322"] Easily done :) Best way to learn and get it straight in one's head is to make mistakes. When you've set 51.5 against the Latitude scale on the Motor, you'll find that it'll correspond to about 39 on that Elevation scale (There is an "equivalence" table in your Motor Destruction Leaflet). So that difference means that your dish, which should look nigh on vertical, is actually pointing upwards by 12 or 13 degrees, thus overshooting the Satellites by thousands of miles. [/QUOTE]
