Instructions say to move dish left and right to get quality. But, it doesn't work. I moved the thing three times and triple checked all my installation instructions. But, no help. Can anyone help me get this thing up and running before I pull my hair out?
Thanks,

What is your Lat/Lon? Ie is AMC5 your true south sat?
What angles did you set on the motor elevation and/or latitude scale {not same}.
What Angle did you set on your dish elevation AND does you motor have a 30 deg or 35 deg bend (ie is equation 30-decl or 35-decl ).
What transponder on AMC5 are you trying to tune? Ie Freq/SR.
