Here are the settings that i put in below. I didnt have any luck today with these settings. I know there can be some play with these numbers. I did notice today that the motor mount was not plum and i did fix it. I was thinking that was the problem? But i didnt get the linear satellites at all. I did seem to pick up some signal and quality at Nim 91 when moving the dish ? But i was trying to get sbs6 at 74 and i did try the bird at 72 with no luck. I didnt go nuts because i know that it can be hard some times. I wont give up! Any words of wisdom please reply rainman and Reinhold ? Thanks for the quick reply to my post!

Back to the drawing board here!
