[QUOTE="Red alert, post: 1085123, member: 414470"] Thanks for the help, it seems with this motor I have lost partial line of sight to 1 west :mellow: and any sats beyond 1 west, because the dish is lower on the pole. I can peak 1 west to 54 %, which is fine as long as I can pick up the eastern sats, which I do but not peaked signal. All the eastern sats have clear line of sight. Seems I have problem when I tighten the motor brackets they go out of level slightly on the left, is there a guide to properly tightening bolts on motor so you dont lose the arc? If the dish was on a wall it would have less problems, but I unfortunately cannot put it as front of house is south facing rather than the garden. long story. I suppose I can try inverting the dish but dont know how much effort and time is required, I wouldnt know where to begin. [/QUOTE]
