Use the Dishpointer.com site, enter your exact address, select your Motor Brand from the bottom of the Sat list, click Go.
It will show you where the Motor should be pointed, when the motor is at Zero.

You will be trying to lock a TP on Galaxy 25 at 93 west:
Galaxy 25 at 93.1°W - LyngSat

yep you would need to lock 93W...use either the Azteca mux which is really strong or Macys. I'm straight north of you about 5 degrees (Minneapolis) and 93W is my true south too

Iceburg. My dish & motor are correct.My mast is level. NOTHING! Sometimes pull in 148 thats it.. Could I be loseing sig. strength because of 100' of cable?? Would a Lbn sig. booster help?? Thanks..

 

[Mr Tony]

nah...100 feet is nothing. I've got about 125 feet on my motorized

Can you get anything (channels) on the true south satellite?
