You're in the right area of the receiver. Range Overflow, or Out of Range, usually mean that the USALS parameter are not correct, OR the satellite you are setting up is beyond the range of USALS calculation abilities. It should be -81 deg, or 81 W longitude.

I don't have your receiver, so I can't be specific. Try moving your cursor to the longitude area, and then try a right arrow, or down arrow to change from + to - . Other than that , maybe someone with the same receiver will chime in.

just make sure the longitude is set for W. Some receivers are defaulted to E for some reason (my Coolsat 8000 did that)...Usually to change to W move the cursor on the receiver over to where it says "E" and hit "OK".,..that should turn it to W

Here are some notes that are specific to a Coolsat receiver such as the Coolsat 5000. They may not apply to other receivers, but you might keep the information in mind just in case you can apply it to your receiver, too.

I have observed that, if you are adding a brand new satellite that is not in the existing list, you might have to have a valid TP entered for that satellite before it will allow you to change the default E to W.

There is another method to get around this that is quite easy. Subtract the satellite position from 360 and enter that number as an Eastern coordinate and it will automatically change to the proper Western coordinate.

i.e. The sat to be added is 93.0W (360 - 93 = 267) Enter 267.0 E and it will automatically change to 93.0 W.
