Scanning The Arc - Q? Newbie

[Mark_AR]

OK, I've had my FTA for 2 days. Last night I erased all of the SATS and started over.

I got T5 and AMC4 back in. (With more channels using a 'smart scan')

I was getting 85 on signal and 76 Qual. Then my signal went to 20 and my Q hit 0 and stayed there.

I couldnt get T5 or anything to come back. I shut it off for 15 minutes and came back to it and have signal again.

I don't know if it overheated or what, but anyway, heres the Q:

What is the best way to scan in the SATS so that the motor won't have to swing from SATMEX to Anik F1 and back.

Is there a way to line them up in order from E to W or W to E to save wear and tear on the motor and drive circuit?

What I did was put my channel list in the order of satellites
AMC6, SBS6, AMC5, etc.

I dont think the list on the install menu can be moved around
