    Is this the issue? See how it's off axis. Is it supposed to be aligned straight? Is that the problem..... How it sets way off at a angle???

    Okay here's a few pics unless I'm missing it, there's only 1 mount for actuator.... So it can only go on right side.

    The dish is a 7.5 ft laser I believe. It says laser on the center piece and the plastic feedhorn cover. Let's see we are looking at latitude is 39.7 longitude like - 105

    That's a good question. But you can see there isn't a place on the left. It doesn't exist. Nothings there. It's not like. I can turn it 180 degrees I don't believe.

    Okay look at the picture. See how there's only that 1 mount on the right side. There isn't 1 on the left for the actuator. So how would I mount it on the left?

    Ok so per the manual I agree with u it's on the wrong side. But there is only 1 spot for the actuator arm. And it's on that side. I dint have 2 spots to mount the actuator like I see on most mounts.... I was wondering the same thing. And this is how. It was mounted before when I took it down. I...

    I live in golden Colorado. Yes I have used dish pointer and all that dish align etc etc. I have the apps on my iPad , phone to see where the birds are in the sky when I'm outside. I have the angle finder. I don't know why I'm having so much trouble.... I dug the hole where I thought I'd have...

    Yes I've watched that many times. And it looks like he has a nice bar going across to where he could measure declination angle. I dont have that on mine. I have read and read till I'm blue in the face. I don't know what I'm missing.

    Help with first c band install

    Okay guys. I have been working with this thing for weeks now and I honestly think I'm worse then when I started. Seems the only say I can ever lock onto is 121 w and now I can't even do that..... I attached a bunch of pics. Where exactly do I measure declanation angle. As you can see I put the...

    That's the guide I was using. I got the manual though from someone and it looks extremely close to mine. I think after watching some videos I have a better idea now, and looking at the manual for my dish. I still little list on all the focal point and all that. Also now I need to find something...
