    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    I just confirmed the guide data was from 110 (check zap2it guide). I had picked it up during my setup (after I did a factory reset of the receiver trying to get motor and receiver in-sync). So I saw the leftovers guide bits when I was moving around on t-5 or g10r. So it was a false alarm. me bad.

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    The u-bolt worked great. I just had to enlarge the holes on the bracket. I reset the motor and then tuned in amc-5, g10r and IA-5. Still not happy with the way the it seems to be squirrely at times trying to adjust sat positions... maybe it's just the receiver. The guide seems to be...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    I was looking at some pics of other motors, and I think I should be able to convert my dish bracket to use a similar u-bolt setup (it looks simple - and obvious).

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    I've got the antenna setup with Diseq 1.2 control currently... I'm not sure if the motor has USALS support(I don't recall seeing it in the spec but I'll have another look). I guess I can always try (even it it's not listed), and see if it responds. I can take some digital pictures of the...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    Ok, we're in business :). I was quickly able to locate 91 with the circular lnb by setting the elevation to desired value subtracting 22.7 from the stamped scale (I set a temporary reference point). I then swapped in the linear lnb and was able to lock in amc-5., tweaked for best signal...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    Well, I downgraded the setup to fixed mount and swapped in a circular lnb to get some basic reference points yesterday night and still could not locate a good signal (the quality just jumps all over the place, up into the 90's for brief moments sporadically). However, because of the very...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    I should have one somewhere, but one of the polarities doesn't work apparently (guess it should be too hard to try R + L freq). I'll look for 91 which is close so that my reference on the pole shouldn't be too far from it. Out of curiosity, Is it just because you don't have to worry...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    First of all, thanks for the welcome. I had a brief chance yesterday to get up and try re-aiming the dish... I aimed to true south (+10.5 declination) and then tried tweaking the dish and motor assembly as a unit, around the pole to tune in the sat - nope. I also entered some other tp's...

    33" Offset Dish & HH990 Motor Setup

    Hello All: Got myself a 33" Digiwave dish (S750WB), HH990 (SPM990) Digiwave motor and Digiwave 7000 receiver and was doing the setup on the weekend. After getting the setup mounted, I spent a few hours trying to tune my closest due south satellite but was not able to pick up AMC-5 with a...
