    hard to lock on to galaxy 10R

    I live in Middletown Ohio. It's in between Dayton and Cincinnati.
    I had my dish pointing to T5 and since Kisb is not free anymore, been trying to get signal to Galaxy10R. It seems to be hard to lock on to the satellite. Do I need bigger dish or something?
    Since the elevation is set to 29 degrees or so, it seems to be pointing pretty much perpendicular to the horizon.
    Anybody has any suggestion on how to lock on to it better?

    Also, I had question about the angle of the LNB. Where does the angle start? Where's 0 degree starts from in respect to the cable input area.
    Any info will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Go here http://sadoun.com/Sat/Installation/S...Calculator.htm and calculate your azimuth, elevation, and LNBF tilt.

    The satellite longitude is 123 W

    Make sure you add 4 degrees to the Azimuth you get to compensate for magnetic deviation.

    Your lnb straight up/down is at 0 degrees.

    For the Korean channels use transponder

    sadoun,
    Are the korean channels still free on galaxy 10R for certain.
    I am also having difficulty to get locked on to 10R.

    Yes they are still and hopefully will continue to be FREE. Just checked them yesterday. We have a 1m dish setup on an HH motor and getting Galaxy 10R as good as it gets.
