    I am on my most south sat SBS 6 setup with my motor. In your opinion should I just keep it the way it is or would you try to line up AMC 6 as the most south sat?

    OK, gotcha there. Now when I go into antenna setup and pick my sat, there is a setting for "Positioner Setting" There are 3 choices: Disable, 1.2 and USALS. Which one do I set it for? And once set for the sat I pick the dish should automatically move to that sat, correct?
