Macthecow: I will try to help you, have had a SV8000 for almost a year now, an its on its 2nd movable dish now. but it sound like you are confused about storeing satellite positions, with the SV it is like the previous post when in set up menue under motor (enable) RED button to store satellite position. An i dont use USALS never had, I come from old school
c-band where you program your satellites in 1 by 1 an its fast when you get use to it, at least for me.
Now this is what i would do with it, 1st drive it to your true south satellite, the do a master clear on that receiver, then go up on roof an reset motor also, now you can start from the beginning. now befor you start adding satellites go to lyngsat, an print out a list of your satellites then mark your true south sat, an high lite the ones you are going to program in. now under the motor use functions up above to move east or west is CONTINOUIS volume up will control this an set it too 2 (this will only pluss the motor alittle) then when you get too the sat you will see quality come up go to 1 for the fine tunning, then RED button to store.But just drive to each satellite, an store them DONT do a channel scan just yet. DO NOT DO A CHANNEL SCAN yet.
Now you are wounder why no channel scan, this is why, go back to your true south satellite ( satellite button to right of 0) an it will go to it. then get a usb stick go into menue an upload channel list (under usb file list red button) then take usb to your computer an save in a folder, this saves all your satellites an settings without channels, just in case if you ever have 2 rescan satellites or to do a master clear, or if your motor ever gets off you can put your settings right back in, an it is a big time saver, an a nice tool with the SV. I got 56 satellites in mine now.
Now macthecow just call up your satellites by the satellite button then go into menue an just scan satellite (red button) or blind scan (blue button) now you are ready to watch tv, as you go tru your list of channel it will move to it wheather you use faviorites or not. Hope this helps you to get it going, an good luck...
