[QUOTE="Mike16, post: 5679"] I recently purchased a H-H motor and installed it according to the insructions elsewhere on this forum. I believe I am tracking "the belt" because I am able to receive several satellites across 29 degrees of arc (both Astras (28E & 19E), Hotbird (13E), Sirus (5E) and Thor/Intelsat707 (1W)). I receive strong, claer signals from these satellites. I cannot receive satellites on either side of these limits because the dish's line-of-sight is limited by trees. I have a clear view from about 35E to 3W, so I do not know if my motor is tracking "the belt" across the entire sky. However, I do not understand why I cannot receive certain satellites within my visibile arc (such as Eutelsat W2 (16E), W1 (10E), and W3 (7E)) when I can receive satellites on either side of them. I live near Frankfurt, Germany and have an 80cm dish. Any explanation or assistance in receiving these Eutelsat channels would be greatly appreciated. Mike [/QUOTE]
