I just finished the install of a new Ku FTA system, and have been scanning channels and getting things set up. I was having trouble with the NBC muxes on SES 3, so I decided to try nudging the dish E/W by going into the USALS menu on the Amiko receiver. After finding that didn't help, I exited the menu but noticed it said "Saving Data" upon exit. Did I just overwrite the USALS position, or are those protected? Also, curious as to what "Go to Reference" in that menu means. Thanks!
 
As long as your Lat. and Long. are not changed, you didn't hurt anything. :)
 
Great! Thanks for the confirmation. I clearly have some work to do as after I monkeyed with that, I discovered that I am receiving some 121W channels (like the DISH “barker”) when supposedly pointed at 123W. This is puzzling, as other sats are displaying the correct channels. Doubly weird as I did the initial setup using 121W, as it my most true south satellite. All was normal then.
