I just got another satellite LOL I am on a roll.

This is a Ariza Dish
34w
37H
What size is this considered
 
I am not sure myself I was thinking of selling it but I can't list it without knowing the correct size.

1 more question how do I find my most south satellite
 
I think i got this
what do i put my dish where it says latitude.
point my dish at 91 get 100% signal
I then go to my setting put in my lat long and my sat at hit go and my motor should go there that is it.
 
"what do i put my dish where it says latitude."
Motor Latitude is set to Your Latitude, once set it is not changed for fine tuning
Dish elevation to what the Dish Pointer web page or to best signal, can be changed for fine tuning.

point my dish at 91 get 100% signal"
You are looking for "Quality"

"I then go to my setting put in my lat long and my sat at hit go and my motor should go there that is it."
That is the theory. With the Motor at Zero, set up for best Quality on your True South Sat, then pick a Sat as far East / West as you can get, allow the receiver to Drive there, make minor tweaks as necessary.

Ok lak7 you have been a great help
question
how do i set my motor to 0
I have HH90 motor
 
What receiver are you using?

In the receiver's USALS settings, where you entered your Long & Lat, look for something that says:
Go to Reference
Go to X
 
what should my dish elevation be when setting up a motor
Thank you

Elevation says 58 is that what I do even with a motor
 
now that I put my motor in it says 40 WOW all that sweet for a simple mistake.
I will try this weekend.

Last question I want to make sure
my longitude is 82.10 so 82W is my southern sat cause it does not say which sat

Again Thank you for all of your help
 
Use the "Compass" Azimuth from the Sat Setup page, and use a decent compass to point in the right direction. Or look at the map and try to align visually. Whith the angles set properly, you would twist the Motor / Dish on the pole Slowly until you lock on your True South Sat.

Which LNB do you have?
