I may try find a magnetic compass somewhere tomorrow and then calculate the diff to true south.I'm going to move it to 0.0 and check True South again.I'm then going to move it to 0.8W, check the tilt of the dish and LNB skew, see if I can lock a Thor transponder.  I'm also wondering if the building in the distance is affecting it (about 2-3 meters away and the roof line pretty much ends at the top of the photo). I sort of assumed it could not, but I don't know the throw of these dishes. Certainly at 0.8W I did not expect any interference given its barely in the peripheral.</blockquote>
