Hi, yes, it is set to Universal (9750/10600).

This morning I have removed the motor and am now trying to get a signal quality for AMC 4 without the motor. I'm going for this satellite because that's where the Portuguese channels are, so for now if I can get this one I will be quite happy. I'll motorize the dish again later in the spring when the weather is better.

What's happening now is that instead of getting AMC 4 I think I'm pointing more towards 110W echostar 6 8 because I get a signal quality there that goes up to 60% when I try to scan, but it fluctuates from 0% to 60%. It's not stable. I guess that rules out a malfuctioning LNB. Does this mean that if I move the dish eastwards I will hit AMC 4 ? AMC 4 is 101°W.

Thanks for the input : )
