Viewsat ultra lite setup - help

[kooguy]

I'm a newbie....

I have this dual LNB - FSKU2VN (Fortec Star), Viewsat Ultra Lite receiver.

I have no motor and DiSEqC for now. Just straight coax from LNB to my receiver. The dish is mounted about 10' above ground and have some big trees 100' frpm the setup.

I'm pointing to Satellite G3C (95W) what need to know what settings should be for LNB type?

Location: Ontario, Toronto, Canada
Azimuth: 201.99
Elev: 37.25
N Lat: 43.7
W Long: 79.42


If LNB Type is set 'Universal', I have these values.
Freq High: 10600
Freq Low: 9750
Transponder Freq: 11780

If LNB Type is set to 'Standard', I have these values.
Freq High: 10600
22KHz: ON
Transponder Freq: 11780

In addition, what should be LNB clock position? I read somewhare it should be 5:30 for Ontario, Canada. Does that transalte to 10 degree?

If the LNB type is set to standard, I see the LNB power is at 83-86 and the Signal Quality is between 0-8 on my receiver.

Am I on the right track?

Standard
Freq High: 10750
22KHz: OFF
Transponder Freq: 11780

Unless using 22khz switch no need have 22khz set on.
When moving dish go very slow
Make sure your behind the dish and nothing block lnbf's view.

That is the correct setting for your LNB, FSKU2VN.

In addition, what should be LNB clock position? I read somewhare it should be 5:30 for Ontario, Canada. Does that transalte to 10 degree?

Here are a couple pages that may help...
Satellite Look Angles Satellite Heading Calculator Azimuth Elevation Skew Tilt LNBF Latitude and Longitude values
Universal KU LNBF - Single Fortec Star Wideband
as you can see, 15 degrees is not that much

Thanks for the help...I got my dish align properly and enjoying the free channels!

Like the member says, go slow when turning the dish.
