[QUOTE="TJExcalibur, post: 1087383, member: 189039"] It is really easy. Set the motor to zero with the dish pointing south. Set the receiver to Thor 5 @ 0.7 west, Sky News 12418 v 28000. Loosen the brackets on the pole and move the dish slightly west and you should get a signal. If not try going east when you get a signal adjust the elevation a fraction at a time. Once you get a signal fine tune it for the best. Fiddling with a level on the motor is always iffy and elevation markings on motors are only a very rough guide. If you get nothing its the elevation that is wrong, amazing how a little tweak alters it all. [/QUOTE]
