I have a 10ft unimesh dish that I am having problems with. I am sure it is a simple thing but as I am new at this the fix escapes me. As I drive the dish west the elevation to the arc drops. I can correct it by adjusting the elevation of the dish up as I move form east to west. I assume that the dish needs to be turned east or west to correct this problem. Based on the fact that I have to adjust the elevation up as it goes west I am sure some one will have a suggestion as to direction I need to move the mount. Or what ever.

:confused:
 
Is your dish pointing true south when it is at the highest point of its arc? (Directly in the center of the polar mount)
 
Sounds like you are not pointed due south with the mount.You need to turn the mount on the pole a little farther east. Then adjust your sat positions with your dish mover. If you get signal across the ,fine tune your elevation and all should be fine.
