Hi I am new to this stuff... I just recently bought a sm3d12

And i dont seem to get any quality. I have a fortec star 76cm dish and a lifetime ultra receiver. I guess i have installed the motor correctly, the true south i guess is set, and i have the right elevation set on the motor, but I dont realy know the elevation on my dish .... if any of you guys can help me it will be appriciated, my magnetic decl. is -4.54 and the elevation on the motor is 27 , which is also my latitude. I live in sarasota fl my zip is 34235. I realy dont know how to calculate the dish elevation , i get confused since english is my 2nd tongue language. If you guys could give me some tips it will be appriciated.

Thanks
