Outstanding, that is what I am doing wrong. The stab motor is set to true lattitude, 39 sometthing. The dish elevation I set to what I thought was the correct subtraction of P, and came up with something like 5 degrees. Wondered why the dish was pointed so low - amazed that I can get T5 at all, but it's so clear I was confused about the rest. I'll give it a shot this weekend, thanks all.
