ok ok lol
its dark out
been mounting this motor all day
got it setup and tuned to 180 deg which should be pointing at IA6
and i get IA6

ok i get 140 channels ( most scrambled canadian)
1 st one is CBS Newspath IA6/1A

ok with a motor how do i tweek it down
it seems to be bouncing around on this channel alone from 69% - 89%
 
forgot to mention this is with my primestar roundish dish (its 44in X40in) with a new QPH031 lnb
and sg2100 all which arrived very fast Thanks Sadoun...
 
well that was the level reading at the channel

it looks like i'm getting bot IA6 and the Express-vu sat cause i can see both channels cbs feed & xpress

levels from the dish settings area of the CS 5K is
level 82-83 %
quality 90-94%


went to try to move to next sat and motor took it all the way east
about 50 degrees ( to about 130 on compass)

will play with it some more
 
lol yeah but the misquitos will carry ya away if you stay out very long

well i played with it and lost quality and signal down to 74% and 68%
boy i probably need to read the book
just can't get it to work ...
