hi guys,just got my eagle aspen sat stack and wanted to know the best way to get it up and running.I have a six foot dish and have been trying to get a signal on my true south but to no avail.I have aimed ku dishes for some time so i think the 741u is dead.So if you can get me up on this eagle aspen which has no markings for skew or f/d i will appreciate it...thanks for your time
 
here is how I had mine near true south (my true south is 93...this was for 99)
LNB on left...basically the coax at the bottom and the bottom edge "flat" for true south

As for F/D, that's something I played with until I maxed out the quality. On my 6 footer, the B1SAT feedhorn throat is about 1/3" from being flush with the scalar. I did not notice a great difference in quality as I moved the LNBF closer and farther from the dish.
