As usual we are in a disagreement as to adjustment. Just depends on what you want. He states he is only tracking from 58 to 129. That is only the center peak area of the arc for me. So in theory if south were set correctly it would indicate to me declination is off. Can not say which way from info provided.

I went through the "weak" 11720 thing just as he describes when I got out to 30 on the other end. Do not know the tp but it is the Cubavision channel mux. The two of them seem to be the touchiest. I learned through careful slight adjustments that the arc can be tracked with great success using USALS and have decent results all the way from east to west.

It was have Cubavision really strong and then no 11720 on G10R. Then it was 11720 and no Cubavision. Using DiSeqC 1.2 to "fine tune" G10R only produced a 11720 that would fall out regularly. Seen no change in 11800 as far as readings on the receiver went.

After working with the adjustment of the dish 11720 has fallen out only during heavy rain. Cinema+ (when clear) was coming it at a 94 on the scale. Every sat was driven to with USALS with the exception of Amazonas. I just nudged the Echo preset over a bit to peak Amazonas since I have no use for the echo bird. Amazonas was not a preset sat in the receiver.

EDIT: By the way Brent posts he is satisfied with the results he is receiving and that really is the important factor. :EDIT
