If AMC 5 is my most south sat, is it ok to line the dish and motor to that sat, rather than SBS6? If it is ok, do I set the settings in my receiver in the dish location spot as 74w40n as this is my area? When I do that the motor moves automatically by itself torward the west. Shouldn't it...

OK, here is the update. I was able to find the IA6. Motor elevation set at 40 degrees as instructed for my area. Horizon 75cm dish set at about 25 deg -- no real way to tell for sure on the bracket. I can get the motor to move -- painfully slow -- using 1.2 disecq. The only other sat that I...

I think I am running into another problem. The SG2100 is about 100 t0 120 feet in cable from my receiver. Is this to far of a cable run? If it is, is there some sort of an amplifier that I can put inline to boost the input/output of the receiver. I don't think that the motor is running...

I will give it a try first thing in the morning. I will let you know how I make out.

Hello everyone. I have an SG2100 and need help lining it up. I am in NJ at lat 40. AMC 5 is the farthest south that I can get because of trees in the way. I need to know the angles for this set up and the proper way to hit the sat. I think that I have to have the degree on the motor set...

Grounding Wire OK, the reason that the pole is 50 feet from house is because the coax wire is already run from the pole to the house. The problem is the coax was run under a paved driveway. If I sink a grounding rod next to the mounting pole and ground the dish to that would it be ok to run a...

I am setting up a new dish. How important is it to ground the dish? It is not near the house and is mounted approximately 50 feet away on a steel fence pole in the ground. If it needs to be grounded, would a grounding rod sunk in the ground next to the pole suffice? Thanks. :confused:
