Agree Bill.... If everything is aligned correctly, the USALS ought to get you really close (as you rightly mention, within a fraction of a degree)....
In my case, I can verify that this is the case with the Lifetime and the MII.
My point was, I believe the guy was watching one sat - and he said he moved the dish using USALS and it was tracking the arc correctly except for 1 Sat.
Doesn't make sense. The USALS has to be working correctly. Either the dish is slightly out of alignment or there is a tree in the way.
I'm going to guess that either the dish is out (in which case all signals will come up, notice he only has a Max reading in the 60s), or he has a case of bend LNB arm (remember that one Bill??
) , or he simply has the coordinates for the sat entered incorrectly....
It doesn't appear that the fault is with the USALS or the receiver.
