Right now I'm recieverless so it isn't tracking anything - lol.

I had it on a smaller pole tracking 58w - 148w without issue when paired with my CoolSat. I sold the coolSat and I have a Pansat 3500s on the way. I needed polarotor control and the component output was a big plus.

When I set it up the first time, I set the motor elevation as per the instructions. I then setup the receiver with my lat/long info and USALSed to my TS sat. From there I set the azmuth by rotating the whole motor and dish as a single assembly and dialed in the the dish elevation until the the dish was peaked on the TS sat. From there it tracked the arc perfect and was dead on with USALS :mozilla_cool: .
