Is this normal... tryed removing limits.
On my SM3D12, also numbers go to 60 (it's the same box/case as Sm3D22),
it was advertised to go 50º each side, but indeed, stopped somewhere at 49º.
I am at 37.2N 121.8W and the east limit for my motor is right where AMC5 79ºW is.
My solution, as I told already, is to put a second LNB to the left(east) side of existing one: this way you can extend your range for 4 -5 degrees more.
