What I do is go to LyngSat, find some clear FRs, enter them into my Traxis, then go to the satellite closest to the one I am looking for, then start bumping the dish east or west, depending on which way you have to go until you signal gets strong then I hit the scan button. I've used this method for quite a while and it works pretty good......at least for me.
